Connecting People to the Outdoors & Each Other
TU420, the Dave Whitlock Chapter of Trout Unlimited in Tulsa, Oklahoma, is dedicated to the preservation, restoration, and responsible management of our local trout and freshwater ecosystems.
Our mission is to promote conservation, education, and community engagement to ensure the long-term health and vitality of these precious natural resources.

What We Do
Our Programs
Three pillars of action that drive the Dave Whitlock Chapter forward.
Trout In The Classroom
Students raise salmonids from egg to fingerling right in their classrooms, then personally release them into the Lower Illinois River, building a deep conservation ethic along the way.
~5,000 Oklahoma students reached For students who released a fish →Conservation
Stream restoration, water quality monitoring, and habitat advocacy across Tulsa’s freshwater ecosystems, striving for clean, healthy streams and abundant trout populations.
Protecting Oklahoma’s watersChapter Outings
Group fishing trips, fly-tying nights, and on-the-water clinics for members at every experience level, from first cast to seasoned guide.
All skill levels welcome

What Our Community Says
TIC was a new experience for me and my students this year. It was definitely a learning experience at that!
My students actively monitored the water quality and took ownership of the fish themselves. This program provided an excellent, inclusive, hands-on learning opportunity. I’m looking forward to hosting trout in my classroom again next year.
