Land of Enchantment Guides Cancellation and Gear Usage Policies

Reservations & Payments

Land of Enchantment Guides requires a Master Card or Visa credit card number to finalize and hold your reservation/booking. If clients choose to use their credit card to pay for the trip, Land of Enchantment Guides will not bill the card until the day of the trip. Or, if they prefer, clients can pay their guide/guides with either a check or cash. If a fishing trip is cancelled, there may be a cancellation fee incurred by the client (see the section below for specific details).

Cancellation Policies

Day Trips: If a full day or half-day fishing trip is cancelled less than 14 days (2 weeks) before the day of the fishing trip, Land of Enchantment Guides will bill the client's credit card for 50% of the total cost of the trip. If a full day or half-day fishing trip is cancelled less than 3 days/72 hours before the day of the fishing trip, Land of Enchantment Guides will bill the client's credit card for 100% of the total cost of the trip.

Canones Creek Ranch & Quinlan Ranch Packages: If a Canones Creek Ranch or Quinlan Ranch Fishing Package is cancelled less than 28 days (4 weeks) before the arrival night of the trip, Land of Enchantment Guides will bill the client's credit card for 100% of the total cost of the package.

San Juan River Packages: If a San Juan River Package is cancelled less than 14 days (2 weeks) before the arrival night of the trip, Land of Enchantment Guides will bill the client's credit card for 50% of the total cost of the package.

Cancellations Due To Bad Weather: There will be no cancellation fee for trips cancelled due to bad weather. The decision to cancel a trip (if the weather conditions are too inclement to fish) is solely up to and at the discretion of the guide for the trip and/or Land of Enchantment Guides.

Use of Fishing Gear

Land of Enchantment Guides will provide clients all the fly fishing gear they will need (fly rods & reels, custom tied flies, wading gear, etc.) for all fishing trips - at no additional cost.

Broken Rods: If a client breaks a fly rod belonging to Land of Enchantment Guides there will be a $65.00 rod repair charge added to their bill. The only exception to this policy is if a rod breaks while a client is fighting a fish. If this is the case, there will be no charge to the client.

Damaged Waders & Wading Shoes: If a client damages any waders or wading shoes belonging to Land of Enchantment Guides, due to their own negligence (i.e. ripping waders on a barbed wire fence, slipping and damaging either shoes or wading gear), they may be responsible for a repair or replacement fee for the damaged gear. This does not include leaks or wear due to regular use of waders and/or wading shoes.
