desertrat,
What part of New Mexico do you live in? I fish in southern New Mexico often and may be able to point you in the right direction.
Cheers
Eddie

Hi all just joined the forum I live in NM, anyone else from my neck of the woods on here I feel like I'm the only carp fisher on the Rio Grande. I look forward to hearing from you all and picking up some tips.

New Mexico Carp fishing, Am I the only one?
in North American Carp Fishing

Thanks for the reply, very good website btw. I have caught bigger than the fish in the pic, the biggest was over 20lb but without scales I dont know for sure. The best spot I have right now is a dam on the river at Algodones that holds some big carp, could be a 30lb fish there for sure.
I am just getting going again I fished carp in the UK before I moved here but I am starting from scratch right now. I hope to have better tackle by next year and will be trying some other waters come the spring.
I have been fishing sweetcorn mainly but end up catching a lot of cats and suckers besides the carp I want. I think next season boilies may be the way to go a larger more carp specific bait will hopefully get better results and aviod other fish.
Good to know there are some serious carp fishers in NM, where abouts are you maybe we can meet up next season.
all the best Terence
