About Conchas Lake State Park
Conchas Lake is a 25-mile (40 km) long reservoir in northeastern New Mexico, behind Conchas Dam on the Canadian River. The lake has an elevation of 4,200 feet (1,300 meters) and a surface area of 9,600 acres. Conchas Dam was completed in 1939 by the United States Army Corps of Engineers. Adjacent to the lake is Conchas Lake State Park, which is divided into two separate areas, north and south. The state park has nine public boat ramps: five in the north area and four in the south area. The lake contains walleye, largemouth bass, white bass, shad, flathead catfish, channel catfish, bluegill, and crappie.
