What’s living in Loop Creek? We’re about to find out! On October 17, ENCTU will be conducting an electrofishing and SOS survey on Loop Creek.

Fish are only part of the story. We’ll also be looking at the stream itself and the aquatic life that can tell us a lot about water quality and overall stream health.

This is the kind of hands-on conservation work Trout Unlimited is all about — and we’d love for you to join us!
