Your Guide

Eric has spent the past decade searching every nook and cranny of Northern New Mexico in search of wild and native trout.

Eric learned to fly fish in central Texas, targeting a variety of species like the Guadalupe Bass and Rio Grande Cichlid from some of the beautiful crystal clear rivers found there. Relocating to Taos, Eric fell in love with the vast terrain of Northern New Mexico.

He has a passion for teaching others the world of fly fishing with an approach that emphasizes harmony with nature, informed by a deep knowledge and respect for the natural world.
