Never in that area of CO before and was hoping for a good time with my son in law at a time of year not that active normally. Dave not only knew exactly what fish were biting (salmon were just beginning their run - earlier than ever before), he was exceptional in every way, from guiding and patience to exceptional lunch! What a great day that became a true highlight for us. You can't wrong with WCA and especially Dave Gravely!

I fished and stayed with CRA in 2018. They were professional, accommodating, and friendly…read more Are the bad reviews from people who've used them or based on one bad guides actions when he wasn't on the clock for CRA? Businesses can't control what employees do when they aren't working. I'll fish and stay with them again.

First, let me say, I hate giving negative reviews. However, if you're looking for a fishing guide…read morearound the Conejos, I'd look somewhere else. The store is nice, but we've paid some pretty decent money for 3 guided trips that were all less than great experiences! We won't do it again! One half day trip with a young man who took us to public water... gave very little guidance for flies to use, or where to cast. No fish were caught...and only one short take. So sorry to say, but there has to be a better bang for your buck!! I'll be looking for somewhere else to spend my money and time!

The water isn't too choppy and there aren't many motorized boats on the water usually, except for some small pontoon boats.

They have little cabins you can stay at but we didn't get to see inside since we were only there to rude horses for the first time. Prices weren't bad, I think it was $40 each for one hour? I forget. We chose them because they were the only company that would let our 6 year old ride on his own horse. David was our tour guide and he did a great job teaching us all what to do. Made us all look like pros. Some of the route was a little scary, near & overlooking the edge of mountain. But the horses did great guiding us safely through it. We would come back here again if we ever do the pagosa hot springs again.

Whether you're an experienced horseman or a novice like me it's an experience you'll never forget. The mountain scenery was beautiful, the camp was comfortable, the food was delicious, and the fishing just doesn't get any better. At one point I was pulling out a trout on every third or forth cast, wow! I could not have done anything like this on my own. San Juan Outfitting handled the logistics, and their knowledeable guide coached us through the entire trip, even advising on where and how to catch the fish. If this is something on your bucket list, like it was mine, or just wanting to fish a new fishing spot, or wanting to experience a new and fun adventure -San Juan Outfitting is your ticket. They delivered what they advertised (http://sanjuanoutfitting.com).

We visited Pagosa Springs in early August and my wife treated my son and myself to a fly fishing…read moretrip. Brad was our guide and took us to the South Fork of the Rio Grande on the other side of the continental divide. Although it was a little dry this summer, there was enough water to hold fish (even though they were on the smallish side). Brad was extremely patient and helpful, especially with my teenage son. We were able to catch several brown trout and had an incredible day with him in the beautiful mountains!

We were in Pagosa Springs for 11 days, and I know my bf LOVES to fish, so we went on a fly-fishing…read moretrip to Rusty's place (private land) on Saturday morning, the day before we left. It was an absolute blast! I have NEVER fly-fished before, and I caught 3 "GOOD" sized fish - 13, 14, and 15 inches. Thomas maxed out with an 18-inch rainbow trout. Jamie was our guide, and he was just the absolute best. He allowed Thomas to do what he does, as he has fly-fished before, while still giving him pointers that helped him get better. Jamie was SUPER patient with me, gave me great pointers, was super informative, and even held my hand as I crossed the creek. I mean . . . c'mon! I got to meet the owners of the land we fished on and they were great--super kind and very genuine folks! I even got to see a MINK cross the trails and took pics of the geese and their goslings in the lake! The views were magnificent. Call ahead, and you get to choose if you want to fish for quantity or quality. We voted quality--hence the bigger fish, but fewer caught. We scheduled the whole thing online with ease, and Jamie called us back after he got off the water with prior clients. Honestly, when we go back again, odds are we will hit Jamie up again, but maybe more as friends, to go fish with us. If you're a newbie or experienced fisherperson, definitely check this place out and ask for Jamie! :)

But new wave rafting cares about the people more. I'm gonna be back as much as possible. 1000% recommend these guys. Use new wave I promise you won't be disappointed. Also awesome pics too.
