   Welcome to the Hacklebarney Trout Unlimited Website!

These pages describe the interests, activities and organization of the Hacklebarney Chapter of Trout Unlimited.   This chapter was founded in 1975 and still retains some of its original members.  Our chapter currently boasts 500 members and about 50 of these regularly attend our monthly meetings.  We welcome all to our meetings and would enjoy you as a new member.  The only requirement is that you  love fly fishing and enjoy the company of others who share this with you.  As you will easily see in these pages, we are active in the conservation and monitoring of local trout streams, eager to educate others in our sport, and leverage our membership to organize events where we can refine our fly fishing skills and learn from each other.
