Elephant Butte Lake: The most recent report was received Dec. 18. At that time, fishing for catfish was good when using chicken. The South Monticello boat ramp is currently closed and access to Rattlesnake Island is currently restricted due to low water levels. The closures will be lifted when water levels rise and conditions allow.
