Reeling in the Year 2022

From the very beginning, the Northwest Steelheaders have been at the forefront of angling advocacy in the Pacific Northwest. Our theme, Reeling in the Year, once again invites a look into our work advocating for accessible abundant fisheries. It goes without saying that our accomplishments wouldn't be possible without your continued support.

Restoration of our salmon and steelhead populations in the Pacific Northwest is our top priority. The Steelheaders are investing in a future of full-length fishing seasons and increased bag limits through all of our initiatives, and that won’t change anytime soon. We’ve been able to champion bills that have increased angling access, advocated for salmon and steelhead restoration garnering national attention, and it doesn't stop there.

With your continued support, we can carry on fighting for lasting protection of salmon and steelhead and ample fishing opportunities in the Northwest. We hope you’ll join us as we “Reel in the Year” through our Virtual Auction. Registration opens November 7th and bidding will open on Tuesday, November 15th.

The Association of Northwest Steelheaders (ANWS) was founded in 1960 and is one of the oldest and most cherished conservation and sport fishing advocacy organizations in the Pacific Northwest. We are anglers dedicated to enhancing and protecting fisheries and their habitats for today and tomorrow. Our programs include youth conservation education, angler education, protecting public access to waterways, and advocating for fish.
