TROUT TAILS - March 13, 2012

I usually don't use this space for things like these, despite the number of them I am involved in, but this one hits close to my heart.  I fish Yellowstone every year, and can't imagine a year without traveling to this magical land.  I know a lot of people who either fish here every year, or dream of fishing here at some point in the future.  As an active member of Doc Fritchey TU in Harrisburg, PA, a lot of times we concentrate our efforts locally, as we should, but every once and a while an issue presents itself that transcends geographical boundaries and calls for all trout fisherman to unite behind a common goal.  I believe this is one of those times.  

The Eastern Yellowstone Chapter of TU is looking to help eradicate the lake trout from Yellowstone Lake and restore the Yellowstone Cuts to populations reminiscent of days past.  You can read more about their efforts here .  Any donation would be greatly appreciated, and help to restore a truly magnificent species.  Additionally, I will be auctioning off a limited edition print of a Yellowstone Cut at this years Doc Fritchey TU  Banquet, which the Chapter will match the final auction price, to the Yellowstone Chapter for use towards this worthy cause.  Please come to the banquet and bid or make an independent donation.  Any amount will be greatly appreciated.  Lets all ban together to help restore/protect a wonderful resource!
