Don't Go to the Chama Below Abiquiu...Yet

I went to the Chama last week, and although the level should have been at fishable (about 400 cfs), it had just come down to that level and was still very muddy.  I caught a few suckers, but didn't get any strikes from the apparently reticent trout.  Give it a couple weeks to clear, and I bet the fishing will be superb.  Remember, put a little bit of weight on your leader and give yourself 4-5 feet below your strike indicator to the nymph.  It's been well stocked so there should be some fish to catch!
