Salmon Enhancement is an organization founded by fishermen and dedicated to the ultimate goal of ensuring quality salmon fishing opportunities for our community. We strive to preserve, restore and enhance our local fisheries so that recreational and commercial fishing can flourish well into the future. But this work preserves, restores and enhances so much more.
Fisheries act as a way for Salmon Enhancement to reach a diverse base of support in a wide variety of natural resource management areas. Our three-pronged approach to fisheries restoration has been a fruitful strategy to engage children, families, landowners and agencies with land and watershed stewardship ethics that go much further than just ensuring the survival of our local fisheries. We work collaboratively with other groups and individuals to alleviate the burden on our natural resource base so it is able to sustain our communities well into the future.
Salmon Enhancement is dedicated to this stakeholder-approach to fishery restoration. We recognize a need to work, recreate and live in our watersheds. We also recognize that fish serve as a bio-indicator species for our local watershed and are proud to know that the work we do to improve fish habitat will have the added side-effect of improving human habitat. The work we do can ultimately improve local flood issues, preserve agriculture land, ensure water sources for years to come and provide recreational opportunities for future generations.
No other local or statewide nonprofit organization approaches natural resource protection through fisheries with this unique three-pronged strategy of stock enhancement, community education and voluntary, stakeholder-driven, on-the-ground watershed restoration.
