Spotted Bass
While Deming, New Mexico, isn't exactly known as a bass fishing mecca, dedicated anglers can find Spotted Bass opportunities in the area's smaller reservoirs and stock tanks. These fish aren't as abundant or large as in more famous bass fisheries, but the challenge and solitude can be rewarding. Spring and fall are your best bets, as the water temperatures are more moderate, encouraging bass activity. Look for submerged structure like rock piles or brush, as these spots will hold the most fish. A local tip: many of these water bodies are on private land, so always secure permission before fishing. Also, be prepared for potentially windy conditions common in this region. Smaller lures and slower presentations often work best for these somewhat pressured fish.
