Brockoway Tank is a reservoir in Doña Ana County, New Mexico, and covers about 0.7 acres, reaches about 2.6 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 1.1 acre-feet.
Brockoway Tank is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover. With little deep water in Brockoway Tank, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.

How to Read the Water
A focused trip to Brockoway Tank begins this way: make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.
Season by Season
A useful start on Brockoway Tank is simple: shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long shift.
A Simple Tackle Plan
The plan for Brockoway Tank starts here: a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.
One way to read Brockoway Tank is this: record the wind, water color, productive depth, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
