Doug Cressman Chapter




The Doug Cressman Chapter is Trout Unlimited Canada's first chapter in Saskatchewan.  The chapter is honored to be given the opportunity to name the chapter after the late Doug Cressman, former CEO of Trout Unlimited Canada. Doug Cressman saw a need for the presence of Trout Unlimited Canada in Saskatchewan and initiated the organizations first projects to protect and preserve the coldwater streams in the province.


The Doug Cressman Chapter's focus is centered on the protecting, preserving, and restoring the coldwater streams of the Frenchman River watershed, which includes Belanger, Sucker, Conglomerate Creeks and the upper Frenchman River. These waters contain native and naturalized populations of cold water fish species, some of which only are found in this area of Saskatchewan. Current land use and water management strategies in the area make these creeks highly susceptible to bank stabilization concerns and are at a high risk for erosion. Working with landowners, regulators, and the public to address and mitigate these issues are a top priority of the chapter.
