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.
It doesn’t matter what experience you have when it comes to fly fishing. We have a great group of members from all stages of experience and they enjoy helping others learn the sport, educate, and share their passion for conservation. Come join us!
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
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 waters
Chapter 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!
KBKassidy BurdenTIC Teacher
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.
