Tis the season to give... and receive. As flyfishing winds down for the year and we begin heading to the mountains for fresh powder and steep slopes, I want to take a moment to pause, reflect, and give thanks for another unforgettable fishing season.

As I flip through photos of monster trout and goofy friends having fun on the river, I’d like to ask if you would join me in giving back to the resource – to the fish and to the rivers - that have given us good times and memories throughout the year so that 2013 will be even better.

If the fish have been good to you this year, click here to give back.

For almost 3 years, thanks to the support of anglers like you, the Greenbacks have directed your donations towards vital native trout conservation and restoration projects - preserving and protecting the places and fish we love right here in Colorado.

With wild fires expected to threaten trout again next year, and more water projects on the horizon that may take additional water from our streams, our fish and rivers need your help more than ever to ensure their survival, and the survival of our sport.

Please consider giving back to the fish by clicking here.

In appreciation for your generous gift of $100 or more toward native trout conservation, the Greenbacks want to give you one of our limited edition Greenbacks hooded sweatshirts. Wear it with pride on the slopes or on the river knowing you’re helping keep our rivers and native trout alive.

Thank you again for your ongoing support.
