Fly Fishing New Mexico with Trisha Valdez – Small Streams to Big Tailwaters

Fly Fishing New Mexico with Trisha Valdez – Small Streams to Big Tailwaters
Q: What inspired you to start New Mexico Lady Anglers?

Fly Fishing New Mexico with Trisha Valdez – Small Streams to Big Tailwaters
Q: How is Mora River different from the San Juan River?
Trisha explains that Mora is a small, shallow river with browns and limited flow, ideal for dries and near-shore casting, whereas the San Juan is a much larger, seasonal water body with higher flows and more diverse opportunities; both offer unique challenges and storied local ecosystems.
Henry's Lake Fly Fishing with Darren Huntsman (Littoral Zone #23)
Q: Tim Carpenter asks, and he has many questions, but his main question is, how do I know when to use which line in which situation?
The host explains that line choice depends on depth, water clarity, weed growth, and whether you are fishing with indicators, long leaders, or sinking lines; several episodes cover specific scenarios such as sinking techniques and hover lines, and multiple lines may be useful depending on the day's conditions.
891 | Southern Oregon Steelhead Fishing with James Sampsel of Humble Heron Fly Fishing
Q: What gear and line setups work best for winter steelhead on the smaller rivers?
Light tips (Sink 3-5), 10-foot leaders, T8-T11 for edges, and sometimes multi-density lines when water is pushing down, with six-weight single-hand rods for trout-style fishing in upper sections.
