New Mexico Trout is dedicated to the preservation and enhancement of trout fishing in New Mexico’s waters through restoration of riparian habitats and through the education of the public about trout fishing and the value of trout habitats. Whether you are new to fly fishing or have years of experience, you can benefit from membership. We welcome you to get acquainted with us through our website and by joining us at our next monthly meeting.

New Mexico Trout is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with no paid staff or office.

We are a friendly group who enjoy fishing and talking about fishing. We hold monthly meetings with a guest speaker, sponsor informal get-togethers, have a regular scheduled fly-tying group, work together on conservation projects, and host an annual conclave, usually in January or February.
