 Trout populations are back on the rise since the start of BKWA’s restoration work on the Kill.

A combination of large trees with root wads and stone have been carefully placed at each site to create more cover and shelter for trout.

Southwestern VT TU are proud to have partnered with the BKWA on a multi-stage project at the Dufrense Pond site on the East Branch of the Battenkill.
