Trout Unlimited Canada is once again preparing for a busy and rewarding September and October — when our staff, chapter members and a large number of dedicated volunteers will save over 30,000 fish during TUC’s annual Fish Rescue Program.TUC’s Fish Rescue program began in 1996 on an irrigation canal near Caresland on the Bow River. The program has since expanded to include six different canals in southern Alberta fed by the Bow, Highwood, Belly, Waterton, and Oldman rivers. Most of these canals do not have screens to prevent fish from entering the canals.
TUC, our members, volunteers and our partners provide invaluable leadership for projects like the Fish Rescue, ensuring our coldwater resources are wisely managed and protected.
The 2010 TUC Fish Rescue program begins Thursday Sept 30 at the Max Bell Arena in Calgary.
