Trout Unlimited is a 501(c)(3) not for profit organization whose mission is to protect, conserve, and restore our State’s cold water fisheries. Trout Unlimited is a non-profit organization and the banquet is their only major fundraiser.

All of their fundraising efforts are designated for conservation projects that benefit North Jersey streams and rivers. FSBNJ relies on the Annual Fundraising Banquet to help them reach their goals! Come out, have fun, and support a local conservation effort at the same time!

FSBNJ sponsors Trout in the Classroom in 23 North Jersey classrooms. They host a seven week fly tying program at the Sparta VFW. FSBNJ also supports women’s and children’s Fly-Fishing classes and events. They are also a partner with Project Healing Waters. FSBNJ is proud to announce that they have completed the restoration of the Sparta Glen Brook last year.
