In focus will be renowned steelhead biologist, John McMillan, who's presentation will jump you light year's ahead in your understanding of steelhead behavior, what's going on in the conservation community, threats and challenges for our fisheries and probably some great stories from his years researching and fishing.

Sneak Peak

The theme will focus on the diversity of steelhead and will cover a range of issues that many anglers have long been interested in. For instance, do you know why steelhead are unique compared to salmon? Do you know why one fish becomes a rainbow trout and another a steelhead? Do you know how hatcheries influence the diversity and what that means for wild and hatchery steelhead? Are there examples of steelhead recovery, and why did those populations rebound?

We will cover these topics, and more, before delving into potential solutions that anglers will need to embrace and promulgate if we are serious about securing the future of our steelhead fisheries.
