Guide To Fishing At Eagle Nest Lake
AKA: Eagle Nest Lake State Park

At 8,200 feet elevation, Eagle Nest Lake is primarily a fishing lake. The water is a bit too chilly for swimming and water sports. This 2,400-acre lake, in the northeast part of the state, is conveniently located at Eagle Nest.
Excellent fishing for stocked rainbow trout, cutthroat trout and kokanee salmon is the big draw, plus there is good fishing for northern pike and perch. Virtually all the 16 miles of shoreline is accessible for fishing from the bank. The marina, bait, tackle, boat launch ramp and campgrounds are located at the lake.
