I went and spent the morning catching fish all morning. The problem was, they were all between 4-6". I'm not suggesting that some were small, I am saying every single fish was that size. To be honest, I did not know that anyone fished for fish that small on purpose. Why would you?? My guide was incredibly friendly and very knowledgable so I am a little surprised about the outing. I know a half-day trip limits locations but this was incredibly disappointing. It was a lot of money for the outing and to say I have buyer's remorse would be an understatement. So if you book and they tell you they want to take you out to the La Plata River, please insist on a different location.

Brad was our guide and took us to the South Fork of the Rio Grande on the other side of the continental divide.

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! :)

My wife and I booked with Julien, along with three of our four children, and we left from our experience with so much more than just reflecting on the size, abundance, or frequency of fish caught. We left with so much more than we ever expected and that was peace, relaxation, fun, knowledge, and a reassurance of kind, hardworking, and welcoming people in this world, because of Julien. Not only is Julien one of the most sincere, patient, and positive people we have been fortunate enough to meet in this amazing community, he is extremely knowledgeable in his craft and he taught our children so many important techniques and practices for fishing in the area and for fishing in general. From the moment we arrived, to the moment we parted to our vehicle, we were welcomed with kindness and taught the ins and outs by Julien. As we have fished in many different areas, in differing states, and for many differing types of fish, I can say that this was one of my favorite fishing experiences to date. Julien embraced and taught our children as we would, and he allowed them to experience and be involved in every step of the process, and so much more in between. It is rare to find someone who enjoys teaching children their knowledge and we are very appreciative of everything he did while we were with him. I cannot say enough great things about Julien and Go Fish Durango. We caught plenty of fish during this time, and that allowed our children to learn something new that they had been eager to learn. We could have never caught a single fish and it would have been a great experience, regardless. You will not be disappointed with your trip, and we will be booking with Julien again and again. If it's fishing in the summer or ice fishing in the winter, we cannot wait to book another trip with Julien and all that Go Fish Durango has to offer. Don't miss out on your chance to have this experience with someone who truly loves doing what they do, and sharing it with those who are open to learning! I rarely write reviews, but great people deserve recognition, and Julien is an amazing person. I am grateful to have booked this trip with him.

I was especially impressed with their commitment to the welfare of the animals, checking them over every day, and making their health and wellbeing a priority.
