Bipartisan Fishing Trip Unites Oregon and Washington Legislators for Conservation

EDGEFIELD, S.C.— On Friday, Sept. 6, legislators from Oregon and Washington joined forces for a unique bipartisan fishing trip, hosted by the Oregon and Washington Legislative Sportsmen’s Caucuses and sponsored by the National Wild Turkey Federation. The event aimed to bring together key stakeholders to discuss wildlife and fisheries management issues in the Pacific Northwest.

The day began early at the Ridgefield Boat Ramp, where 11 boats— provided by experienced fishing captains— awaited attendees for a morning of salmon fishing on the Columbia River.

Following the morning’s fishing activities, the group gathered for a luncheon at the Sportsman’s Public House. Krista Modlin, NWTF district biologist for California, Oregon, Washington and Nevada, alongside Rich Mann, Washington NWTF State Chapter President, gave a detailed presentation on the critical forest restoration and habitat work the NWTF is spearheading in Oregon and Washington.

“It was an honor to represent both Oregon and Washington at the event and to educate legislators and wildlife commissioners on the valuable work we are doing on the landscape,” Modlin said. “While I didn’t catch any fish, the connections made and the shared experience on the water were invaluable.”

The event brought together numerous conservation organizations, including Delta Waterfowl, Ducks Unlimited and the Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation, each contributing to the day’s discussions and activities. Both the Oregon and Washington NWTF State Chapters were instrumental in sponsoring this important event.

The NWTF continues to be a leader in conservation, working tirelessly to conserve our natural resources and preserve our hunting heritage. Events such as this are vital for fostering relationships and advancing the important work of wildlife management and conservation across state lines.
