RESEARCH
For several years, The Washington Fly Fishing Club has directly funded promising graduate-level fisheries research and already, WFFC-supported research has broadened the knowledge base and will likely improve the science of fisheries management. The Club's support for this research is a sound investment in the future.
EDUCATION
Both directly and through its support of other conservation organizations, the WFFC works to raise public awareness of the fisheries issues in Washington State. Better informed people, anglers or not, will make better choices.
PUBLIC POLICY INVOLVEMENT
Healthy waters support healthy fisheries. Those waters are attractive to many competing interests and the WFFC works to make sure the waters and the fisheries they support are well represented in policy deliberations and don't suffer under the political pressure applied in the name of those competing interests.
STEWARDSHIP
The Washington Fly Fishing Club is active in the restoration and improvement of local fisheries. As designated stewards of Griffin Creek, a primary spawning tributary for Snohomish River salmon, the Club works with King County to both plan and implement a variety of riparian improvement projects.
