fishing in New Mexico?

I'm from Florida, and now live in Roswell, and I want to start fishing again, but there really is not anywhere good to fish this way we Brantley Lake Carlsbad and the Pecos runs through the city, but I'm not eating anything from there. I want to find a place in the mountains around this area (not pretty in Ruidoso) take day trips, or fish as possible / camping trips for the weekend, somewhere where not many people so my dog is not bothering anyone. I want something more local, but if it's a great point II wouldnt mind going north to Santa Fe, or west to the Gila. Cloudcroft area also is nice, and I wouldnt mind finding a place there. I would also like a place you can camp and fish in the same area (eg, camping in a river or lake) Thanks for any help.
