Cutthroat TroutBrown TroutSome of the best trout fishing in New Mexico can be found on the Carson National Forest amidst the imposing beauty of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Hundreds of miles of cold water streams and numerous lakes are home to rainbow, brown and native Rio Grande cutthroat trout. Many of these lakes and streams have campgrounds nearby. While the most popular spots are noted on the map, there are literally hundreds of opportunities on the forest.

We welcome your comments on our customer service and your suggestions for improvement.
