- Hey guys, this is stop 2 of 2020. It's March and I'm Fly Fishing the San Juan River New Mexico for 6 days. I was looking for a winter destination and after talking to Fisheads, decided to drive up and fish the Juan. All I can say is, it was awesome! So awesome, I had to make this video 2 parts (link at end of video). Wade fished for 4 days and kayak fished one day. Hope you guys like the video.

Enjoy watching you fish and I like that you dont over do talking and really show your time actually fishing.
Yes sir, others mentioned it also. Just glad I took y'alls advise. Thanks for the feedback!
Excellent video! Thank you for the thoughtful, gentle handling of our New Mexico trout.
All I know how to do!
This guy is just so mellow and down to earth. I don't fish with other people often but I wouldn't definitely fish with this guy. As I say this I see a stone fly on my window so I am off to fish spotted bear
It's a nice tailwater beside a paved road. I have floated from Texas Hole and shuttled with my fatbike, but you did it right by hiking up from there towards the dam and wading. Nice. Very coolio. De Opresso Liber.
I am spoiled that I grew up in Aztec. Awesome video! Always dreaming of that river.
Yeah it's a super river and area in general. Wish I didn't live so far away...might have to move, lol!
Shout out to Abe’s!
Drew : Enjoy your videos Would like to see you talk about the flies ( size and name of fly) you use and your rod/ line set up ( if a dropper, how far up etc.)for the water you are fishing.
Thank u...have heard that before and adding more of that info into my latest videos. Really appreciate the feedback!
Thx for another great flick Drew! Some big fish there and great fights too.
Yea, the Juan is a super fishery!
One may stay at the Navajo Lake campground 10 minutes away above the dam for $15 a day which includes the San Juan day use fee. Can't beat that! 😁
Member of healing water group in CO. Will be “healing “ Dec-feb. would love to plan a March trip and tie some flies. What nymphs and dries do you recommend? Also, I have a bellyboat. Do you think that may work too?
Thanks for your insight and great videos. I really enjoyed the rivers you fish in the videos

I would love to help! If you can email me at looknfishy@gmail.com I'll do my best to be as helpful as possible!
Hi Drew, I'm planning to fish the San Juan River in a couple weeks and while searching UA-cam saw the trip you took there 5 yrs ago. Looks awesome.
Did you use a 4/5 setup or 6wt for those bigger fish? My 3/4 wt, 6 wt and euro nymphying rod will be my weapons of choice.
Take care and tight lines.
Very nice vid 👍
Much appreciated, just getting started but this year will rock!
Drew LooknFishy I’m right there with ya brother.....
What kind of rod do you use
Was using my Orvis H3F10ft 4wt..super for light weight nymping and dries...love the extra reach for high sticking.
What kind of rising net are you using ?
Rising stubby lunker
Nice hat!
Thx dude!
The San Juan is SOOOOO OVERCROWDED!!! Worse than the lines at big city Best Buy on Black Fridays!😂
Do you ever fish dry flies? I see almost all nymphs w/ strike indicators in your videos.
All the time. There were some dry fly eats in the Juan series, part 2 for sure. Almost all of my Colorado and Wyoming (part 2 and on) series is dry flies!
Great video! And great fishing!
Thx bro, yeah it was a great trip...ended way to quickly!
Hey Drew, great video! I'm from CO but have an opportunity to fish the San Juan in a couple weeks and was wondering where you are staying in this video? I'm hoping to find an affordable place to crash for one night. Thanks!
Man, I want to get back this winter. Just waiting for them to open back to out of state visitors. So Abe's is probably your best option for 1 night and reasonable!
@@LooknFishy thank you for the tip!
Who puts their waders on in a bathroom?
Planted Fish, Lazy fish, Contained fish, Deceased fish, No wild trout here and payed for 12x the recycled cost of used fish. That's the only fish you will find on The San Juan River in New Mexico the dirtiest river in the west. San Juan the biggest hidden Trap for fishermen! The Pecos has clean free fighting wild trout and believe me you will know the difference!
I hear ya. Also heard there were a bunch of stocked rainbows in the Pecos?
@@LooknFishy Not good for the brooks! The only river left with wild healthy trout!
