Looks like I'm likely to be going to Phoenix, Az *area on a fairly
regular basis over the next few years.


Are there places near-by for trout fly fishing? * warm water?


I would like to add another question: Anyone know of a good fly
fishing shop in Phoenix?
I'm going there on a business trip in 4 weeks time, and thought I'd
buy an extra pair of Simms waders.

I saw this as I was looking around .... I have zero experience with
the place and Tempe is a Phoenix suburb, I believe ... where *ASU is
located

Good find! Roger, where in Phoenix will you be? Is a pretty spread-out
city, and this shop is in Tempe (pronounced tem-PEE for when you tell
the cabbie), which is SE of the airport and city center.


If you want to find a good supply of outdoor gear for a good price
(tents, etc), then the Bass Pro shop is only a couple of km further
east from the Tempe fly shop. Mesa is the next neighborhood east of
Tempe.

Well, I plan on staying an extra day and having a look around. I'm
meeting with a couple of guys that work for Intel, where exactly
remains to be seen.

You do know that another ROFFian is a rather senior engineer for
Intel?
