Suzy Wieser believes it’s important for everyone who cares about the environment and the outdoors to step up and do their part.

Like many anglers, Wieser started out fishing with spinners but made the move to fly tackle. These days, her favorite river is the San Juan, where she says her two dogs like to accompany her on the water.

“With fly fishing, I like that it’s much more technical. I’m sure spinner fishing may not say that,” Wieser said. “I’m really having to focus on my own skills. But for me, it’s really just being out in nature, and seeing wildlife, and having that calmness of it.”

Wieser got involved with the NMWF because of her commitment to conserving and protecting wildlife and the environment.  “We just have faced so many challenges, especially in the last few years, and the only way we’re going to protect it is for each and and everyone of use to step in and do something, and it,” she said.

When she’s not fishing, Wieser works at Bank of America. She graduated from the University of New Mexico and also holds an associate’s degree in veterinary technology.
