Trout Run, Wyoming River Restoration Project to Improve Fisheries for Private Fishing Club

1/24/2020

Aquatic Wetland Restoration

The countryside of Wyoming represents an important part of the United States' geological history. During a large geological event millions of years ago, the shifts of the area in what is today known as the midwest gave way to a transitional landscape. Parts of the flat land dropped, like in the North Platte River Basin of Wyoming, ( https://www.wyohistory.org/encyclopedia/north-platte-river-basin) and the other westward half rose upward, in what became the beginning of the Rocky Mountains. The transition is still in place today and created a unique transition into the habitat of the wild west. The river basin now provides for essential wildlife habitat as the watershed provides a large number of freshwater springs in the open country.

Besides being an important geological junction with a large number of archaeological sites, the countryside also happens to provide for great fly fishing habitat. For those avid fishermen, unfortunately, most of the land is privately owned. There do happen to be several private fishing clubs though where those looking for ideal fisheries and secluded streams can toss in, like the one we worked with along the banks of Trout Run.

Fisheries Restoration and Population Enhancement of the Privately Owned Trout Run

Trout Run is a side channel of the North Platte River that runs through a private fishing club near Saratoga, WY. Beginning in August 2011 Urbani Fisheries, in conjunction with the areas private fishing club, the Local Conservation District, and the Wyoming Natural Resource Foundation, began restoration work on 2 miles of river. The goal of this project was to improve the trout and wildlife habitat and increase wild trout fishing opportunities along this stretch of waterway.

How Urbani Fisheries Specializes in Wetland Restoration to Revamp a Dwindling Fish Population

Urbani Fisheries works in-step with their clients to achieve their goals using a specialized holistic approach. When beginning a project, fisheries areas are first assessed to determine how best to proceed with the wetland restoration project. Surveys are taken and specifics, such as the best types of fish populations to add and recuperate, are then discussed and planned out. Once a project has been assessed and redesigned, the construction begins. Further instruction on what to expect post-restoration is always given, but the goal of each project is to aim for little to no continued maintenance.

When working in both private and public fisheries, the goal is to create a sustainable habitat. As fly fishers ourselves, we take pride in revamping a beautiful fishing spot and bringing back a thriving native fish population. Feel free to get in touch to discuss possible issues if you are noticing a dwindling population in your past favorite fishing areas. It may be as simple as a few tweaks to your private waterways!

TESTIMONIALS

"I can't thank you and the guys enough for your great work! I am so excited for the future of both rivers. We have made such an improvement to the habitat. I couldn't be more proud of the two projects! All my best."

-Michael L. Bateman

"In 2012 I hired Urbani Fisheries LLC to restore a section of river along my property. ​Today the whole aquatic system is better off and I have caught some of the biggest fish of my life. They use a holistic approach and work well with all the players to get the job done."
​
​-A. Cooke (New Jersey)



"In 2011 the Raritan Associates, a very old fly fishing club on the North Branch of the Raritan river in New Jersey, contracted with Urbani Fisheries, LLC to do some major stream  habitat improvement  & restoration work on the stream. This work included deepening certain pools, building rock weirs and placing boulder clusters in certain parts of the stream to create pocket water generally increase aquatic invertebrate habitat. Joe Urbani and our club worked very closely with the Natural Resources Conservation Service with whom we had a WHIP contract to help finance this important work on the North Branch.

The actual work took place over about a ten day period during which time Joe Urbani and his top flight crew were on site each day as the restoration work was implemented in accordance with an approved plan. Urbani Fisheries built approximately 16 pools and used the spoils to build point bars for the purpose of narrowing the channel cross-section. Likewise, banks were stabilized with boulders and plantings in order to mitigate erosion. 

During the entire process Joe Urbani and his crew were professional, competent, caring and thorough in all their work. The end result is a dramatically improved fishery and a restored trout habitat that has produced a superb fly fishing experience for our membership."

-B. Danforth Ely- President, Raritan Associates
