At long last, we can now accept reservations for all three of the Chapter's 2012 trips. We have introduced several real improvements. Here is a quick summary:
- In past years, trip reservations were accepted over several months. Beginning this year, all three trips are now listed on the Chapter's online sign-up form. You can sign up for any trips that interest you.
- Every trip features an optional, group dinner so we have a chance to get together and socialize.
- No more waiting for other members to figure out their plans. Whoever pays first guarantees their place on a trip.
To learn more about the trips, click "Events and Trips" on the nav bar to the left then click "Chapter Trips". Or, CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP ONLINE. |

Fishing in the Croton Watershed |

 Trout anglers will find many fine fishing opportunities on stream segments downstream of nine New York City Reservoirs. Combined these nine stream segments offer over 13 miles of publicly accessible trout water. In most cases brown trout are the most common species, while in others rainbow and sometimes even an occasional brook trout provide diversity. <read more here>

Welcome to the Croton Watershed
Welcome to our home waters: the Croton River system and its many lakes and tributaries. The Croton Watershed, which covers some 387 square miles, contains some of the finest fishing in the eastern U.S. The system includes three major tributaries and 15 reservoirs, not to mention a number of smaller watercourses.
We are fortunate that the rivers and lakes in our watershed are part of the New york City water supply. Considering the number of people living in the area and the amount of residential and commercial development, were it not for the preservation and care accorded our local lakes, rivers and the land around them, we would be hard pressed to find any clean, cold water to wet a fly in, let alone drink. So, the availability of such terrific trout fishing venues so close to home is truly a blessing. |

The Eastern United States is densely populated and faces a host of environmental challenges ranging from air pollution to overdevelopment to growing demands for ground and surface water. Throughout the region, TU staff and volunteers are rolling up their sleeves to work for healthier watersheds and to protect and restore wild trout populations. |
