23I admit I haven't been to all the shops -- when a serious flyfishing friend sent me here, I didn't see any reason to go anywhere else. The guys (all I saw) were very willing to help a novice without condescension, although they seemed to have welcome tips even for what looked like experts who were coming in. (Looked like= worn gear, not new.)
The guides are terrific -- they will take you as deep into the backcountry as you're up to going, although there are some terrific flyfishing spots that are within an hour or two of Santa Fe, and accessible by car. Some are on private land, others on public.
I'm looking forward to my lessons in casting, fly tying, and maybe one of these days I'll get to take one of their fishing adventure trips.
