Striped Bass
While Eunice, New Mexico, might not be the first place that comes to mind for striped bass, there are some opportunities to target them in nearby lakes and reservoirs, particularly those that have been stocked. Spring and fall are the best times to fish for stripers, as they tend to be more active when the water temperatures are moderate. Look for them schooling in open water or near points and drop-offs. Trolling with crankbaits or live bait is a popular technique. A key local tip: pay attention to the wind direction; stripers often congregate on the windward side of the lake where baitfish are concentrated. Be prepared to cover a lot of water to find the schools of fish. Striped bass in this region can vary in size, but some impressive specimens are possible. Check local fishing reports for the most up-to-date information on stocking and fishing conditions.
