My grandfather was the legendary Abe Chavez who pioneered fly fishing on the San Juan river in New Mexico. My family has been in the fishing industry for over 60 years. I grew up fly fishing the San Juan and know the river intimately. I have over 25 years experience personally fishing to these trout on this river.

    Full Day Trip – Float for 2 • 2 adults

    We love to fly fish and we had a great time on the river. My husband had been here years ago and wanted me to have same experience. Didn’t disappoint. Tim, our guide, was amazing and patient with me.
