In September, CTU noted that the Denver Fur Ban was a threat to fishing, but now more information is available about the proponents’ intentions. A recent Outdoor Life article has several concerning statements and quotes.

The author reports, “Natalie Fulton, a spokesperson for Pro-Animal Future, is aware that the ban would include some materials commonly used in fly fishing. She says fly fishermen and others just need to adapt. (Conventional anglers would be affected as well since some lures, like bucktail jigs, call for the same natural materials.)”

In addition, this may not just be about Denver. Fulton is quoted as saying, “We would love to go statewide. We’re not going to stop fighting until fur is a thing of the past.”
