Details

This event ended Sat, Oct 17 - 12:00 PM

Everyone is welcome to help with the brush cutting and invasive plant removal on Bluff Creek to increase angler access and allow growth of a more desirable prairie ecosystem.

Sat, Oct 17 at 9:00 AM (CDT) until noon. The work session will be followed by a brat fry. (You will have the rest of the day to cast flies to Wisconsin trout!)

The work site is near where Bluff Creek crosses County Highway P southeast of Whitewater, WI. Link to Work Location on Google Maps (There is a small roadside parking area just to the north of the bridge.)

Bring waders if you have them (some work does not require them), safety glasses, work gloves and a folding chair to sit on during the brat fry.
