Hear how salter brookies were spared from development

A development proposed on habitat crucial to sea-run brook trout was recently rejected, despite government approvals, in Massachusetts. Learn how this victory was won, how the fight will continue and what can be done to restore these native fish when Geoffrey Day talks on Zoom at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 20, on Zoom.

Geoffrey is a co-founder and Executive Director at Sea Run Brook Trout Coalition.  He has a B.A. in Human Ecology from Connecticut College, and a background in aquaculture, recreational and commercial fisheries advocacy, fund-raising, management, technical and internet marketing consulting.

Geoffrey bought his first fly rod for five dollars from the bargain bin at LL Bean, and his first fly-caught striper was on an original streamer he created from a kit ordered from the Herter’s Catalog in the sixties.  He has been working with sea-run trout monitoring and restoration since the early 1980s.
