| About: - Cochiti Lake is located within the boundaries of the Pueblo de Cochiti Nation on the Rio Grande about fifty miles upstream from Albuquerque. Cochiti is stocked in cool months with rainbow trout. In addition to stockers, 3- to 5-pound rainbows often show up from November through February. Similar size browns and some big rainbows also show up in those months on the Rio Grande below the Stilling Basin. However Cochiti is know more for the northern pikes, walleyes and smallmouth bass. Some northern pikes are in the mid 40 inch range and walleye can be nearly 30 inches in length.(more on New Mexico's Cochiti Lake) |
