Son and I went to New Mexico to fish the San Juan River with Soaring Eagle outfitters. Absolutely world class place. Awesome food, guide, accommodations plus two great days of floating the San Juan catching browns and rainbows. [Linked Image]

That San Juan fly water is simply spectacular isn't it? And nearby Navajo has a very nice kokanee population. Miss it.

lots of floating down mild rapids and then the guide would paddle back upstream and do it again. He knew every part of that river. We got lucky on the weather - it was perfect

Sounds awesome!

here is their website - our cabin/room had the river at our back door. I will add this ...... while floating along the river the mountains, scenery, and area was spectacular - it was as good as the fishing - amazing country
Cost was around 2K total for the two of us for lodging, all of the meals, two full days of fishing. Tipped the guide well of course - the cabins are excellent and perfect for two people.

Excellent.

Fly rods or spinning tackle?
