Sections We Guide
20 Miles of great fly fishing
We guide 20 miles of unique water and the famed quality waters are just the start. We have options for everyone, from first timers to those looking for more streamer or dry fly action. Our guides will work with you to pick the best options for you and your party.
The Quality Waters
Big fish, everywhere
This is the stretch that made the San Juan famous. With an astonishing 12,000 to 15,000 trout per mile, the fish feed nonstop to put on the inches. Trout in the 20-inch range are common and 30-plus-inch catches happen several times a year. It’s a technical section that demands precision but rewards anglers with some of the best tailwater fishing in the country.
The Quantity Waters
Great for beginners
The “Quantity” Waters is a less-pressured stretch where trout bite eagerly and forgive imperfect technique. It holds some monster browns, but generally the fish here often aren't as big as in the quality waters. We often teach first-timers here. It’s also a fun way for advanced anglers to end the day and escape the crowds in busier seasons.
The "Lower River"
An Advanced challenge
Hardly fished, the lower river is a hidden gem that often fishes well with streamers and dry flies. It has a healthy population of brown trout that fight just as hard, if not harder, than the large fish in the quality waters section. To really enjoy this section, anglers should be proficient in long, delicate casts and streamer fishing techniques.
