SEE OUR IMPACT!
From the SMITH RIVER to the DAN RIVER and beyond, the SMITH RIVER Chapter of Trout Unlimited brings people together to care for and recover their waters through local conservation and community science projects. We are making our trout [] populations stronger, our water cleaner, and our communities healthier.
JOIN US LOCALLY!
The SMITH RIVER Chapter is based here in SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA and holds a range of fun, free and family-friendly events and activities. Whether you swing by a social event or presentation, spend time on the water fishing with us, or get your hands dirty volunteering on a local project, all are welcome!
SUPPORT OUR WORK!
Whether you become a member, make a donation, sign up for an event, or volunteer to help the chapter succeed, the SMITH RIVER Chapter counts on people like you who care about conservation to make a difference for our rivers close to home and across the country!
A LOCAL COMMUNITY OF CONSERVATIONISTS!
Chapter 264, the Smith River Chapter of Trout Unlimited is based in Henry County, Virginia.
We are dedicated to the preservation and sustainability of the trout fishery on the Smith River. The Smith is the longest tail water fishery in VA, and the only trout water in Henry County. It is the closest trout water for fishermen in the south central and south eastern most of VA, as well as eastern and central NC.
We promote the mission of Trout Unlimited in the conservation and restoration of North America’s
cold water fisheries, through education, conservation and outreach.
We enjoy promoting and protecting our local rivers and streams and the endless,
joyous pursuit of the wild Smith River Brown Trout! Come join us.
