The Gunnison Gorge Anglers Chapter is active throughout Western Colorado, from Telluride to Paonia, bringing people together to care for and recover the rivers and fish we love, inspire the next generation to become stewards of our natural resources, and to have fun and make friends along the way!
CONSERVATION & RESTORATION
As a conservation nonprofit, the Gunnison Gorge Anglers Chapter is the leading conservation organization working to protect and restore our rivers and the trout and other native fish that call them home. We lead regular volunteer days including tree plantings and trash cleanups, organize important community science programs to identify degraded stream habitat in need of help, and partner with TU national staff and state and local partners to drive forward larger initiatives like watershed planning, dam removal and landscape-scale restoration projects.

YOUTH EDUCATION
There’s nothing more important than inspiring the next generation to step forward as the conservation stewards of tomorrow. Through in-school programs like Trout In the Classroom, hands-on field days , family fishing days and partnerships with organizations like the Bureau of Land Management to host Cottonwood Days, the Gunnison Gorge Anglers Chapter reaches hundreds of area youth a year with positive fishing and conservation learning.
