Welcome To South Coast TU
The South Coast Chapter is a grassroots, non-profit organization for anglers as well as conservation-minded folks whose mission is, “to conserve, protect and restore trout and salmon fisheries and their watersheds.”
Orange County once had perennial steelhead fisheries in its watersheds in the not-so-recent past. Our hope is to educate, plan and collaborate with individuals, groups and agencies interested in restoring these watersheds back to a healthy, sustainable level, ultimately benefiting all plant and animal species.
