Trout Unlimited Launches Priority Waters Initiative to Protect and Enhance Habitat and Fisheries

Trout Unlimited launches Priority Waters initiative to restore and reconnect trout and salmon watersheds. As staunch advocates for preserving and enhancing fishing for trout in local rivers, streams, and far-off waters, Trout Unlimited’s Priority Waters is rooted in science and collaboration with a vast network of volunteers and trusted partners.

From Trout Unlimited’s Priority Waters initiative:

Think of a community coming together: blueprinting ideas, getting their hands dirty, raising their voices, to ensure that the next generation experiences the magic of those fish and those waters. These are the scenes that motivate the people of Trout Unlimited and inspire our Priority Waters initiative.
