Native Fish Society

If you have ever watched a native salmon or steelhead fighting its way upstream against unbelievable obstacles...

You have witnessed something wild and pure.
And you understand why we need to protect it.

For residents of the Pacific Northwest, these fish are part of our cultural heritage.

For outdoorsmen and women, they are our gift to future generations of anglers.

For conservationists, they are a crucial part of our planet's fragile ecosystem.

But as you know, our wild fish populations are threatened on many fronts.

We all must work together to save them.

Native Fish Society leads the battle to protect and restore native fish populations in the Pacific Northwest. When you become a member, your dues go directly to our projects that protect and restore wild salmon, steelhead, trout and other fish populations in our region.
