204. Trout Unlimited: Conservation in the Classroom

In this special episode, the Water Colors team is joined by representatives from Schrems West Michigan Trout Unlimited chapter (SWMTU). With the expertise of chapter president Nick Garlock and education coordinator Dave Helder, we discuss coldwater conservation and the Salmon in the Classroom (SIC) program. It’s no secret that we here at Water Colors have an appreciation for fish that goes far beyond aquariums. We recognize there is a significant overlap between sportsmen and aquarists, which leads us to discuss how Trout Unlimited’s conservation efforts relate to the aquarium industry. Special thanks to our friends at SWMTU for joining us on this episode!
