ESCTU Chapter Mission
To conserve, protect and restore North America's Trout and Salmon Fisheries
and their Watersheds.
1. Conservation—To improve coldwater resources (i.e. habitat or water flow)
by engaging in projects such as stream restoration or advocacy for
beneficial
regulations.
2. Education—To communicate the important issues and information pertinent
to our mission to each other and the world outside TU. This includes, but is
not limited to, publishing a quarterly or monthly newsletter, giving talks
to other groups or teaching angling and conservation principles to youth.
3. State-wide coordination—To participate in TU efforts at the state level
by sending chapter representatives to at least two state council meetings
per year.
4. Cooperative fund-raising—To work toward shared national and local
fund-raising activities that benefit the mission of TU.

Monday, May 12, 2008: ESCTU Meeting
6:30 Featured Speaker
is Steve Ferrar of the Atlantic Saltwater Flyrodders. Steve will be our
featured fly tier and presenter.
Steve is a local saltwater fly fisher, fly designer, and
past president of the Atlantic Saltwater Flyrodders in 2006 and 2007. He has
authored numerous articles on original fly designs and taught/demonstrated
at many fly fishing shows and clubs through out the Northeast. Steve was the
saltwater fly rod guy in the Sage advertisements in 2001. He typically fishes
from the beaches in the Sandy Hook area and will do a program, as you would
expect, on salt water fly fishing.
In addition to Steve's presentation, Brian
Cowden, the TU Home River Coordinator for the Musconetcong River Project, will
come by to brief the chapter on his conservation efforts on the Musky. I'm sure
that Brian will have some great information, so please plan to join us".
