The joint Yellow Breeches conservation project spearheaded by American Rivers and supported financially by the Orvis Company is designed to allow this legendary trout stream to flow free and clear and contribute to increasing the water quality of the Susquehanna River watershed.
By removing three dams on this river, critical trout spawning habitat will again be connected to clear runs benefiting the wild fish population of this legendary and popular trout stream.
Check out the letter American Rivers sent to Orvis updating them on the project:

The letter is published on The Orvis Company's new blog, The Orvis News The Orvis News is all about conservation issues, fly fishing news & events, sporting dog and upland bird hunting along with high quality writing and photography.
