SUMMARY:February Chapter Meeting with Nick Nelson\, Fluvial Geomorphologist at Inter-Fluve
DESCRIPTION:6:00 – Dinner/ social gathering \n7:00 – Presentation by Nick Nelson\, Fluvial Geomorphologist at Inter-Fluve \n8:00 – Board meeting (Non board members encouraged to stay) \n \nConnections\nLife is about connections – we thrive on our human connections\, our connections to our pets\, our connections to our favorite rivers or natural spaces. Connections are critical between species and across vast landscapes – people around the world await for the migration of fish to give life to human communities and whole ecosystems. For thousands of years\, humans have used fish for sustenance\, to fertilize crops\, to signal the changing seasons. The rivers that these fish move along serve many similar purposes. Rivers connect – they connect human communities\, they provide pathways for thousands of animal species\, they transport soil and nutrients to replenish and rebuild wetlands and floodplains and salt marshes. This longitudinal\, lateral\, and vertical connectivity of rivers is vital to the healthy functionality of our ecosystems here in New England and around the world. For the last several hundred years\, our rivers in New England have been disconnected by tens of thousands of dams\, but the period of dam building is over and dam removal is well underway. We will discuss some really exciting dam removal initiatives in the region that build on lessons learned from the past as we look towards continued opportunities in the future.\n\nNick Nelson is a fluvial geomorphologist and northeast regional director for Inter-Fluve\, a river and wetland restoration firm working to heal aquatic ecosystems through applied science and engineering. He began with Inter-Fluve in 2007 and opened up our east coast operations in Cambridge in 2009. Nick has worked on all phases of dozens of dam removal and fish passage projects regionally and across the country. He has led workshops and discussions at conferences nationally as well as in Europe. He currently teaches a water and ecology class at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design and has lectured at multiple other institutions.

SUMMARY:January Chapter Meeting: Craig Andree will present - Seven Rivers in Four Days: Northern New Hampshire
DESCRIPTION:6:00 – Dinner\, raffle\, and social gathering \n7:00 – Presentation by Craig Andree\, Fly fishing guide and teacher \n8:00 – Board meeting (Non board members encouraged to stay) \n \nThis presentation is a practical guide giving you the beta\non where to fish (park)\, how to fish these rivers\, and\nwhen to fish. It is focused on rivers starting in the White\nMountains on the Franconia Notch side and working my\nway north; cumulating on the Androscoggin and\nConnecticut Rivers.\nI do this trip every third weekend in June\, which\ncorresponds typically with the Alder Fly Caddis hatch. If\nyou never fished the Alder hatch\, you are missing a\nmagical event; if you hit it right. Billions of caddis\ndescends from the Alder bushes that line the\nAndroscoggin and perform their mating dance on the\nsurface. The trout and small mouth bass respond\nfaithfully. And a well presented caddis imitation will fulfill\nyour excitement quota.\nIt is my opinion that the Androscoggin fishes better than\nthe Connecticut River. You will not get any browns and\nthe landlocks are fewer\, but the river seems to be more\nprolific with rainbows.\nIf you are looking for the grand slam (brown trout\,\nrainbow trout\, brook trout\, and landlock salmon\, the\nConnecticut River would be your destination.\nThere are so many opportunities in northern New\nHampshire and each year that I do this trip\, I vary it up. If\nthere is time remaining\, we can talk about other\nlocations to consider and some of the remote ponds.

SUMMARY:Dwayne Shaw (Executive Director\, Downeast Salmon Federation) December presentation and board meeting
DESCRIPTION:6:00 – Dinner/ social gathering \n7:00 – Dwayne shows presentation on the ongoing efforets of the downeast salmon federation \n8:00 – Board meeting (Non board members encouraged to stay) \nThe Downeast Salmon Federation’s mission is to conserve and restore wild sea-run fish and their habitats in Downeast Maine. \nSince its inception in 1982\, DSF has coordinated numerous in-stream and buffer restoration projects; created and maintained two world-class conservation hatcheries and salmon stocking programs founded on the principles of noted Scottish biologist Peter Gray. The organization has guided advocacy\, education\, and outreach on sustainable fisheries\, communities\, and the economy at local\, state\, and federal levels. \nThe DSF service area is primarily Washington and Hancock County–the most fisheries-dependent economic development region along the Atlantic coast of the United States. There are more commercial fishing license holders per capita here than anywhere else in the region. Similarly\, interior Washington County has the highest concentration of Registered Maine Guides in the state. DSF is a statewide leader in Atlantic Salmon conservation. \n \nGraham Lake on the Union River during a destructive lake draw down caused by Brookfield Renewable Energy. DSF is working with the local lake association to protect and enhance water quality\, reaction\, and the fisheries resources of this lake and the Union River. \n\nOur approach is river-centric\, focused on the watersheds and communities of the five Downeast rivers with remnant wild Atlantic salmon populations. The Dennys\, East Machias\, Machias\, Pleasant\, and Narraguagus rivers of “Downeast” Maine offer the last best hope for wild Atlantic salmon in the U.S. \nWe were instrumental in removing dams on the Pleasant and East Machias Rivers\, and received the National Coastal America Partnership Award for transforming two blighted buildings into state-of-the-art conservation hatcheries\, research and education centers. \nJust as a healthy salmon population cannot be separated from its habitat\, the mission of the Downeast Salmon Federation is vitally inter-connected with the natural and human ecology of its region. \nAtlantic salmon were listed under the Endangered Species Act in 2000. That same year\, DSF created the Downeast Salmon Federation Land Trust to protect habitat for salmon and other fishes along the five major Downeast rivers. \nThe land trust was conceived in response to the federal listing and absence of a local land trust with river-centric focus or capacity\, and has since completed more than 30 projects and permanently protected over 6\,100 acres and almost 70 miles of riparian properties through direct purchase or conservation easement and DSF’s preserves are available for public access and use. \nOf highest priority are spawning and rearing habitat\, holding and historic fishing pools\, cold water resources\, and fish passage restrictions. We also prioritize land trust projects with significant recreational or cultural value\, such as small craft access sites\, portage trails\, smelt brooks\, swimming holes\, and waterfalls.
