Have you ever considered fishing as a viable vacation plan for you?  Fly fishing can be a great way to relax.  Being outside and catching a fish yourself can be very satisfying.  

The San Juan river in New Mexico is world famous for its trout fishing.  Located approxamently 40 miles from Farmington, below the Navajo Dam, the San Jaun river flows down a beautiful sandstone canyon.  It meanders slowly down with breathtaking scenery. Its banks are dotted with willow and cottonwoods and there is an abundance of wildlife.  The cool waters and abundance of food keep the trout happy and growing bigger.  The average catch is about 15 to 20 inches long.  Whether  you are a long time fisherman or are relitively new to this sport you will enjoy this vacation.
