Meeting details:

 

Our first meeting of the fall will be on Tuesday October 13 at the Seadog Restaurant in downtown Camden. Tim Shaw, chair of our conservation committee, will be discussing his recent trips to Montana to fish the Skwala hatch. Skwalas are large stoneflies that hatch early in the spring when water temperatures reach about 41-43 degrees. Since they are generally size 8-12, they represent a big mouthful of protein and the trout go nuts for them. Tim will discuss the hatch and where, when and how to fish it. We hope you will join us to kick off the 2026/2027 meetings of GRTU.

Trout Unlimited (TU) is a non-profit organization with a mission dedicated to conserve, protect and restore North America's cold water fisheries and their watersheds. Meetings will be held upstairs at Sea Dog Brewing Co., 1 Main Street, Camden, ME. The meeting will start at 6 pm with “Trout Talk,” an informal gathering for those who wish to visit before the presentation. The formal meeting and featured presentation begin at 7pm. GRTU conducts a raffle directly following the speaker. TU membership is open to all. GRTU meetings are free and open to the public. Visit us on Facebook, or online at www.georgesrivertu.org.
