Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: New Mexico Fly Fishing

blee:

Have you been up above the San Juan into Colorado to streams like the Animas?  if so, is it worth going as part a three day fishing trip to the san juan?  so a flight in and out of albuquerque on day 1 and 5 with 3 days of solid fishing.  any other streams near the san juan that you.  recommend?

Thanks,

Charlie

I live back in Albuquerque now for the last two years.  I still read TPFR and thought I would help.  Hope it's not to late.  My recommendation is to go straight to High Dessert Angler in Santa Fe and check with them.  There is plenty of fishing and camping within one or two hours drive of Fanta Se to keep you busy.  Its tough and challenging fishing.  Your shortest rod might be as wide as the stream in some places.  I've enjoyed the quality waters of the Rio Pueblo near the Sipapu ski area just to name one.  

The San Juan is obviously a popular place, but you will spend more time driving than you will fishing.  Good luck.  Its a beautiful time to be here.

Thanks for the recommendations!  I don't quite have the time I'd like to have--I get in late Thursday, am camping Thursday night and fishing up until Friday early afternoon when I have to head to Santa Fe for the rehearsal dinner.  Then I have from Sunday morning until a late afternoon flight on Monday to do some more fishing/hiking.

I think I'm going to do the Pecos for the first leg, because it will only take me 2 hours from the airport and is an hour from Santa Fe (my flight gets in at 9pm, hoping to have my tent up on site by 11:30).  Four hours might be a bit much, but if I can squeeze it maybe I'll head to the San Juan on Sunday morning.  I do really like the idea of getting two rivers in.
