Join us Behind the fin with Mike Goldblatt, Programs Director and Board Member At Large of the Evergreen Chapter Trout Unlimited.
How long have you been a TU Member?
I have been a member of ETU since 1985
Why did you become a member and what chapter are you involved with?
I became a member to give back to the resource that I get to enjoy... Colorado's fisheries.
What is your favorite activity or project you have done with TU?
My favorite project currently is teaching an introduction to fly fishing class at Evergreen High School. Also, I am involved in the Greenback Cutthroat Recovery program in our local watershed.
I know you won’t tell me your favorite spot, but what is your second favorite place to fish or favorite fishing story?
My favorite Colorado rivers are the Fryingpan, the Lake Fork of the Gunnison and the Conejos (pictured below).
What does being a part of TU mean to you?
Being a member of TU gives me the satisfaction of giving back to the resource and helping younger people become aware of coldwater fisheries conservation and enhancement.
What else do you do in your spare time or work?
I am a retired arborist. I enjoy fishing, golf, guitar, volunteering, and spending time with my grandkids.
