MONTANA STATE COUNCIL
Founded in 1964, Montana Trout Unlimited is a statewide grassroots organization dedicated to conserving and restoring Montana’s coldwater fisheries and their watersheds.  Montana TU is comprised of 13 chapters and approximately 3,400 TU members. As a Trout Unlimited affiliate, we work closely with our national organization on conservation priorities.  Montana TU is financially independent of TU National and is governed by directors from each of the state’s TU chapters.  All contributions to Montana TU support conservation, protection and restoration efforts in Montana.
