Taos New Mexico Fly Fishing Guides Taos NM Fly Fishing Trips Guides for Success
Fly fishing in New Mexico can be very challenging because of the varied terrain and constantly changing conditions. The professional guides we have on staff know when and where to fish. They have extensive experience with beginners and experts alike, so whether your are a first-timer or just wanting to improve your knowledge of our area--- give Los Rios Anglers a call.
Full Day Guided Wade Trip
Typically you will meet with your guide at the fly shop to discuss options for the day and take care of the proper licenses. This trip includes lunch, flies, and all leader/tippet materials. Rental equipment is available if you don’t want to bring your own. For quality of instruction, we limit our trips to 3 people per guide, but group trips with multiple guides or special group outings can be arranged. Price- $250 for 1, $300 for 2, or $350 for 3 people. A full day is 6-8 hours of fishing/instruction time.
Half Day Guided Wade Trips
We offer half day trips in the Taos area in the mornings (usually from 9am to 1pm) or the afternoon (1pm until dark), or at any time in between worked around your schedule. This trip is identical to the full day trip except there is no lunch. Price- $175 for 1, 200 for 2, $225 for 3 people. A half day is 3-4 hours of fishing/instruction time.
Private Water Options
The overwhelming majority of water in Taos is on public land, but there are a few gems on private property that allow for a guaranteed private experience and better fishing opportunities. These private waters require an additional fee of $75 per person for fishing and require a Los Rios Anglers guide as well. For great meadow stream action, please see the Local Water section and the Brazos River. For very easy access and beautiful scenery for pond fishing, look up Los Ojitos in the Local Waters section. |

Los Rios Anglers customizes each guided trip to meet the individual or group’s needs, whether on ponds, small streams, or the mighty Rio Grande to facilitate a safe, enjoyable, day of fly fishing.
