Ep. 13: The Reel Life

Ivan Valdez is an owner of the Reel Life Fly Shop in Santa Fe, New Mexico. In addition to running a retail operation, Ivan is also a professional Fly Fishing Guide. Gregg Flores is the founder and owner of "Where the River Runs." Where the River Runs or WTRR as it is often referred to is a content creation company. Ivan helps travelers to New Mexico make lasting memories on New Mexico's trout streams and rivers. Gregg tells stories and documents the experiences of people around New Mexico. It's not uncommon for these two professions to intersect. Gregg and Ivan have shared the water many times. In this episode we really explore what sharing the water means. On March 1st the New Mexico State Supreme Court ruled that the waters of New Mexico are public and are open to the public for the purpose of recreation. We talk a little about what that means and why it matters. Equally important, we discuss the critical importance of responsible recreation. Public waters belong to all of us and therefore we all have a responsibility to take care of these waterways. We must be committed to be great stewards of our public lands and waters as well as great neighbors to those who own adjacent private lands. Enjoy the listen!
