Fly Fishing in Northern New Mexico and Southern ColoradoDue to the recent Supreme Court Ruling in March 2022 on river access through private property, we felt that our stretch of river was now a liability instead of an asset. We decided to sell that stretch but are still in business for lodging and guiding.

We are located within one hour’s drive of the best trout fishing streams in Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado: the Red River, Costilla, Cimarron, Conejos, Vallejos, El Poso , San Francisco and Culebra.
