Trout Unlimited is a nationwide organization dedicated to the celebration of and preservation of wild trout and their habitats throughout America. Their mission is to conserve, protect and restore North America’s trout and salmon, and their watersheds. They accomplish this on local, state and national levels with an extensive and dedicated volunteer network. TU’s national office, based just outside of Washington, D.C., and its regional offices employ professionals who testify before Congress, publish a quarterly magazine, intervene in federal legal proceedings, and work with the organization’s 125,000 volunteers in 500 chapters nationwide to keep them active and involved in conservation issues. They are active in preserving trout riparian habitat, the biodiversity of trout populations, advocating for wild fish populations vs. hatchery populations, and promoting catch and release fisheries. This site provides news on current Congressional and local developments important to trout and numerous opportunities to true sportsmen and women to get involved.

The Wild Steelhead Coalition is a group of concerned citizens determined to reverse the factors that have negatively impacted wild steelhead, and in so doing, restore healthy and viable populations of wild steelhead to the Pacific Northwest. They represent environmentalists, true sport fishermen, businesses that depend upon wild steelhead for their livelihoods and wisely realized the need to advocate for them, and citizens who seek to preserve the future of Pacific Northwest's fish runs. At a time when the Bush Administration, and legions of profit or harvest oriented special interests are driving salmon policy, they are one of the few voices advocating for science and wild fish populations.

Washington Trout is a non-profit conservation-ecology organization dedicated to the preservation and recovery of Washington’s native fish and the ecosystems they depend on. They seek to improve conditions for all of Washington’s wild fish by conducting important research on wild-fish populations and habitats, advocating for better land-use, salmon-harvest, and hatchery management, and developing model habitat-restoration projects. Founded in 1989, Washington Trout has built a reputation for effectiveness, expertise, credibility, and a focus on the needs of the resource. Among other things, they have corrected the misidentification of over 4500 fish-bearing streams throughout Washington State, qualifying those waters for the legal protections they deserve, carried out important field research on the status and recovery needs of wild-fish populations and habitats, and successfully advocated for needed fishing, land use, and hatchery-management changes in Washington, fighting to improve the performance of local, state, and federal resource agencies. This site has news, information about the programs they are currently conducting and opportunities to get involved.
