Cutthroats on the Fly – Ted Turner’s Legendary Ranch
39:45
In this special episode of Inside Sport Fishing, the show explores the incredible Vermejo Park Ranch and its fly fishing for native Cutthroat Trout. 12000 feet in the mountains of northern New Mexico, Vermejo looks at first glance as the United States would have before humans existed. Its 900 square miles of rolling meadows, lakes and mountains are part of the largest piece of private land in America, immaculately preserved as an oasis to wild animals and fish. Lead by head guide Keith Johnstone, the group fish terrestrial dry flies for good sized Cutthroat in crystal clear lakes and tiny natural streams only a couple of feet across, surrounded by wild horses, bison and the remnants of ancient mining ghost towns.
