Taylor Streit Upp Rio Grande RiverVideo 6min 57sec. Veteran Taos fishing guide Taylor Streit takes you fly-fishing on the Rio Grande River in the Rio Grande Gorge.

"We're here on the upper Rio Grande, Taos County, New Mexico..., what we'll have to do is go deep."

Fly fisherman Taylor Streit knows these waters. He's been guiding them for decades. And he knows what he's come here to catch.

"It's somewhat of a misconception that you're fishing for big brown trout in the upper Rio Grande.

And they are here - but what we're really after in Rainbows, 15 to 20 inches.

Angling on the upper Rio Grande in the Wild Rivers Recreation Area, north of Taos, can be the trip of a lifetime once you get there.
