 San
Juan Quality Waters and
Mid River
The river is alive with insect hatches and feeding trout. Fish can be caught
using an array of techniques; dries, streamers and the ever productive nymphs. It
is a world-famous river for a reason...lots of big fish. The waters that flow
from
Navajo Dam offer technical trout on small
flies and light tippet. Have an AVA guide
show you the tricks and techniques to help
you hook-up on these trophy trout.
Mid
river float or wade trips are located
below the Quality

offer anglers more diverse
waters and at times
a less crowded experience.

dry fly fishing to eager trout
feeding in riffles and long runs.
