Judy Van Put to Speak at October Meeting
On Sunday, November 2, from 1 to 3 PM, Judy Van Put will present a program celebrating the life and career of her husband, Ed, as part of the Jerry Bartlett Angling Collection’s “Sporting Legends of the Catskills” series. Author Nick Lyons will join her in conversation.
Ed and Judy shared a passion for fishing and a love of the Catskills since they met in the late 1970’s. Judy will share memories of their life together and will talk about his multifaceted career as a DEC Fisheries professional, conservationist, fly fisher and fly tyer par excellence, historian and author, and father and grandfather. Copies of Ed’s latest book, A Flyfisher’s Revelations: Practical Tips, Strategies, and Wisdom from Fifty Years Experience, will be available for sale.

Our Fall 2025 Fundraiser Dinner was a great success!
Our recent Trout Unlimited Fundraising & Stewardship Dinner, held on September 13th at the Phoenicia Diner, turned out to be a night to remember. Good food, great company, and a shared love for cold, clean Catskill waters made for the perfect mix of camaraderie, conservation, and fly-fishing history. Seventy folks attended this evening event which netted the chapter $7,559.83! This represents $1000 more than the 2024 efforts and the largest net ever of a chapter dinner/fund raiser.
