New Mexico Wildlife

I posted a new message last week and said that New Mexico Wildlife would be on SUNDAYS. WRONG!! The correct time is 6:30 on SATURDAYS. Sorry for the confusion.

New Mexico Wildlife

"New Mexico Wildlife" is the replacement for "Wild New Mexico". We are pleased to have the Show back on Casa Fox Ch. 2 Saturday mornings at 6:30. I know, I know it's too early, (except when you're going fishing), but tivo it or record it some other way and then watch it at you leisure.

New Shows with some really fun content. Family Friendly!! You don't have to worry about the Kids watching. Paul Evans, the Prducer, has done another of his fantastic video Photography jobs. Each Show will have several segments which we hope will entertain and educate about NM Wildlife.

New Mexico Wildlife and Wild New Mexico

I get a lot of questions about our TV Program Wild New Mexico. You can see the latest programs on your computer at www.myoutdoortv.com . The new version is "New Mexico Wildlife" sponsored by the Department of Game and Fish. I hope that very soom we will be back on Albuq. TV perhaps on Sat or Sun mornings. We will be on some Southern NM Stations beginning in June.

San Juan River News

Above is a chart of the flow rates for the Spring Peak Release Schedule for the San Juan River below Navajo Dam.

The powers that be, (those who control the flow rate for the San Juan), have published their estimated rates of flow for the Peak Release Schedule. This is the "Artificial Spring Runoff" that theoretically allow the sqawfish, oops -- the Colorado Pikey Minnow--, to spawn and meet the endangered species requirements.

Snow pack is estimated at 90% and the inflow to Navajo Dam at 93% of normal. This will mean that from the June date on, normal flow will be 500 cfs. That's good news.

The Fishing Report for February 5, 2009

Here's the latest on fishing around the State. Get out there and have some fun.

ICE FISHING
Only Ice Fishing allowed on Eagle Nest Lake (with restrictions), Lake Maloya and Lake Alice, and part of Bluewater Lake.

STREAM FISHING
Rio Grande - Some Trout taken around Pilar and the Taos Junction Bridge. No reports on Northern Pike

Albuquerqe Area Drains - Probably some of the best Trout fishing in the State since they were recently stocked.

Fenton Lake - Closed to ice fishing. Cebolla above and below is open.

Jemez Waters - All waters below the town are fishing fair to good. Some waters above the town but still lower elevations are rated as fair.

San Juan - Running at 499 cfs and relatively clear. Fair to Good reports from the quality water and slow to fair reports from the bait waters.

Escondida Lake - Fair to good reports since it was stocked last week.

Sumner Lake - a few fairly large Walleye taken with slab spoon deep and a few Crappie near the dam.

Here's Bob to give you all the details on this year's big Show. It's going to be a great one, with new exhibitors and lots of activities for the whole family.
