Fishing Report ~ September 10th, 2024
Fall is almost here and we are looking forward to some great fishing throughout September, October and November. This is our favorite time of year to fish - the air and water are starting to cool, the leaves are beginning to turn yellow and gold, the fish are hungry and the big browns are on the prowl! Check out the latest video fishing report below for more details on what is happening on the water, what our guides have been using and where we have been fishing recently. Good luck and catch em' up!As always, don’t hesitate to call us for up to date information, if you have any questions and/or would like to book a trip. Even better, stop by our fly shop, The Fly Fishing Outpost, in Santa Fe. We have all the fly patterns and gear you will need for a successful fishing trip (See the article below for more information and directions).
New Fly Patterns for 2024
We have been getting in some terrific new fly patterns for the 2024 fishing season, all of which we have tested on the water and boy, they sure do work! You can find full descriptions and large pictures of the new flies on this page of our online store: New Flies For 2024. Even better, if you are in the area, swing by our fly shop in Santa Fe and check them out in person.
