Wyoming Council

Wyoming Trout Unlimited is directed by a volunteer council comprised of representatives from grassroots chapters from throughout the state. The council works closely with national staff and volunteers to provide strategic direction, administration, and support to Wyoming Trout Unlimited’s members.

Wyoming Chapters

There are 12 Wyoming Trout Unlimited chapters that act as local ambassadors for coldwater fisheries conservation.  Grassroots volunteers are the eyes, ears and muscles of Trout Unlimited.  These grassroots volunteers bring an amazing amount of scientific knowledge, legal expertise, community outreach skills, and of course they know how to catch fish!  Wyoming chapters are always looking for new members or volunteers to help with their programs and projects.

Wyoming-Based TU National Staff

Trout Unlimited’s grassroots leaders are complimented by several Trout Unlimited national staff that are committed to the coldwater conservation issues specifically facing Wyoming and the surrounding western states.  Protecting public lands, ensuring quality habitat for fish, implementing public policy, and galvanizing grassroots support are just a few of the tasks they undertake.

Partners

Community collaboration is essential to the long-term success of any project or program. Wyoming Trout Unlimited could not accomplish its work as successfully without the support from the community and agency partners it works closely with.  Each of our partners has dedicated time, energy, or resources to help coldwater fisheries in Wyoming and we thank them for their assistance and support.
