Tom and John have been operating Duranglers for 30+ years here in Durango and much of their local knowledge is captured in this book!  From the majestic San Juan Mountains to the wide-open expanses of the San Luis Valley, few fishing areas rival the pristine beauty, diversity and solitude of southern Colorado’s rivers and trout streams.  If you are planning a trip here and don’t know where to start; this is the one book you need to get!

This guide thoroughly explores our region’s watersheds: the Conejos, Rio Grande, San Juan, Piedra, Los Pinos, Animas and Dolores, as well as the stillwaters of high mountain areas.

Included are:

• Detailed maps of the region and each watershed.
• Area regulations and conservation policies
• Safety precautions, weather and wildlife information
• A list of the region’s important aquatic insects

For those willing to hoof it, southern Colorado’s streams and rivers offer old fashioned, have-the-river-to-yourself fly fishing.  With this guide, even the roadside angler can find idyllic spots to cast a fly; making Fly Fishing Southern Colorado an essential guide for any angler interested in knowing and fishing some of the most pristine and sometimes unknown waters in Colorado.
