FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Leah Elwell Phone: (406) 222-9369 ext. 102 Federation of Fly Fishers wild steelhead publication, The Osprey, celebrates 20 years!
March 1, 2007 Livingston, MT The best resource for wild steelhead information is celebrating 20 years of steelhead conservation. The Osprey is a publication of the Federation of Fly Fishers Steelhead Committee, dedicated to anadromous fisheries current topics. The Osprey provides valuable information for the engaged angler, regional biologist or interested public. Providing pertinent information about our anadromous fisheries as the threats upon them increase is critical, says Leah Elwell, Conservation Coordinator with the Federation of Fly Fishers. No other publication measures up the information provided in The Osprey. The dedication of countless folks, not to mention the professional expertise of fisheries professionals that have generated the Osprey is commendable. The original mission of the Steelhead Committee to marshal a strong voice for the steelhead resource and broaden their scope to become a truly regional effort - has not wavered in the last twenty years. The 20th Anniversary issue includes articles such as The Endangered Species Act and Steelhead, Steelhead Flyfishing, Managing Wild Steelhead, The Osprey History and the State of the Steelhead. Immerse yourself in the news stories, conservation and scientific information from the world-renowned 20th Anniversary Issue of the Osprey on the Federation of Fly Fishers web site http://www.fedflyfishers.org/conOsprey.php.
