San Juan New Mexico River Fly Fishing Rainbow Trout Brown Trout Fishing Trip

One of the over 80,000 fish in the quality waters!

Over 80,000 trout in 4.25 miles! There are few rivers in the world where you can catch trophy trout year-round on a fly. Thankfully, I live, work, and fish on one of them. The San Juan River is a wide, slow, clear tailwater that's fed by the mountain snows of the San Juans in south central Colorado.

Over the last decade the river has become famous for its large number of selective rainbows, cutbows, and browns (averaging 17 inches). This is in part because the tailwater stays a consistent 45 degrees Fahrenheit regardless of the season. So the bugs keep hatching, and trout keep feeding. In fact, I've seen blizzard hatches and bobbing trout heads in January on the San Juan. The plain truth is the San Juan fishes great 12 months out of the year. It doesn't matter whether you are floating or wading with us.

As far as the bugs of choice, we spend a lot of time sight fishing dry flies or emergers to working trout, rather than fishing the infamous San Juan worm. Still, variety being the spice of life, one of the wonderful things about fishing this tailwater is that over the course of a day, you can pretty much run the gamut. Dry flies, emergers, nymphs, and streamers all hunt up fish on the San Juan.

So, this year when you are planning your fishing trip, think about the San Juan! It is a year-round fishery that is second to none. Heck, that's the reason I live here.
