Balmorhea?

Hey y'all wondering if anyone has recently been to Balmorhea lake? If so let me know how the fishing was. Thank you

Really? That may be a fruitless endeavor.

Why would anyone want to go there to fish?

I live in El Paso and was looking for a lake to go to that wasn't super far.

You poor soul.

Can't blame you there.

Learn how to cast a fly then head north to the trout streams of New Mexico.

Actually be better fishing for all the fish in the springs at the swimming hole in Balmorea State Park!

basically kinda screwed there.. Elephant Butte?

I heard fishing has been good at Red Bluff, at least until Cimerex spilled 18,000 bbls of produced water into the Delaware Aug 2 which conv
conceivablely could wipe it out.

I would try Red Bluff or Elephant Butte lake, Looks like you are around 400mi to Amistad.

I fished Balmorhea around 2009 with little luck. I heard it got really low around 2012-2013 and most of the fish died in it. There are a lot of fish in the springs but you can't fish there.

You're only a couple hours from Lincoln National Forest. Easy weekend trip.
