FVTU On Slough Creek

FVTU Veterans Service Partnership (VSP) Coordinators Jim and Jo Borowski just returned from another successful trip to Slough Creek assisting the national VSP program.  This is the sixth year that TU’s VSP has taken veterans into Silvertip Ranch, a private holding bordering Yellowstone National Park and adjacent to the uppermost reaches of Slough Creek; one of the country’s premier cutthroat trout fisheries.

Since 2014 the trips have been exclusively for couples, allowing the veterans and their spouses to experience the serenity and healing that comes from time spent on a trout stream casting a fly rod.   This year four couples from around the country joined Jim and Jo and three other TU volunteers who served as their guides and companions for the week long event.

Beautiful weather prevailed and the early fall conditions meant low, clear water with an abundance of terrestrials.  Hoppers, ants and beetles were the order of the day. For many of the vets and their spouses it was their first opportunity to catch a cutthroat.  Most had never held a fly rod before.
