Several fishermen were out here trying to catch that elusive channel catfish. Lake is stocked every 2 weeks with catfish in the summer months and trout in the fall and winter months. Lots of fishermen as the Isleta Pueblo has a fishing promotion going on until the end of the month with tagged fish worth $1,000 and $5,000. One $1,000 fish was caught this week but the $5,000 one has not been caught yet. Yesterday the dollar amount was to be doubled if someone caught it. So you can see why there are a few fishermen here.
Larry could get a license and fish from the shore but hasn't had the itch to do so. Rules are pretty simple, you catch - you must take with you. It's not catch and release like it is a lot of places. No boats or other craft allowed on lake so it's really quiet.
Tomorrow we leave and travel up to Raton. Should be a fun weekend.
