Conservation

The club promotes conservation of our fisheries and wild lands by hosting, participating, and/or sponsoring conservation activities. These include occasionally hosting river work days on local waters.

If you like to get involved in our conservation programs, please contact our Conservation Coordinator, Tom Connolly, at info@hsfc.us.

Our conservation partners include:

• • The Nature Conservancy of Nevada － Protecting 1800+ acres along the Carson River (River Fork Ranch, Bentley Ranch - Kirman Field), restoring 10+ miles of the Truckee River (McCarran Ranch Preserve, Lockwood and 102 Ranch), and protecting Independence Lake.

  • River Wranglers

  • National Forest Service － Manages our public forests. Many of our local fisheries are in national forests.

  • Nevada Department of Wildlife － Conservation education, habitat restoration and fishery maintenance...  Hobart Reservoir is great example of their efforts.

We encourage keep fish wet catch and release and sensible fish harvesting practices.
