The Fly Fishing Film Tour comes to New Mexico. Proceeds from the upcoming fly-fishing film festival will go to trout habitat improvements and other worthy projects on the state’s top angling attraction, the San Juan River below Navajo Dam, according to sponsors. “The films are great, there’ll be fabulous raffle prizes and it’s a wonderful opportunity to show support for our beautiful San Juan River”, says Larry Johnson of the San Juan River Guide Association. The San Juan River in northwestern New Mexico draws thousands of fly-fishing enthusiasts to its waters each year for the opportunity to catch and release big trout and is consistently rated among the country’s top ten trout fisheries. But the river, one of state’s top tourism draws estimated to bring in up to $40 million a year, is in need of habitat and other improvement projects to benefit anglers and trout alike. Thus members of the angling community have come together to sponsor the fly-fishing film festival in March with shows in Albuquerque and Santa Fe and proceeds to fund future projects on the San Juan River. The first show will be on March 11th. Hotel Albuquerque in Old Town at 800 Rio Grande Blvd NW, will play host to the first showing sponsored by Charlie’s Sporting Goods and Los Pinos Fly Shop. T.J. Trout of 94 Rock and or Bob Gerding will be the emcee for the event, which will feature a no-host bar, food carts, vendors’ booths and a raffle at intermission for prizes such as rods and reels or guided trips and lodging on the San Juan River. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. with over two hours of filming slated to begin at 7 p.m. Tickets are $15 at the door or $10 when purchased at the sponsors’ stores, up until noon of the show date. In Santa Fe, the film festival will be shown at the Lodge at Santa Fe, 750 North St. Francis Drive, on March 25 with High Desert Angler and The Reel Life fly shops sponsoring. The event will feature similar attractions to those found in Albuquerque with the doors opening at 5:30 p.m. and the show to begin at 7 p.m. Proceeds will go to projects on the San Juan River endorsed by New Mexico Trout, the Truchas Chapter of Trout Unlimited and the San Juan River Guide Association. Heritage Hotels, which operates both the Hotel Albuquerque and the Lodge at Santa Fe, donated both the venues, at no cost, with cinema graphic accommodations for the film festival.
