LOC Conservation Ethic

Here at Linehan Outfitting Company we believe in a strong conservation ethic. After all, good conservation is good for business.

To that end, our work with Trout Unlimited will always be one of the most rewarding aspects of our business. Tim is very active in the local Kootenai Valley Trout Unlimited Chapter as vice-president and serves on the board of the Montana Trout Unlimited State Council. Nationally he helps spearhead the Outfitter, Guide, Business Program (OGB).

The OGB program is designed to increase and organize outfitter, guide and business participation in Trout Unlimited. The success of the OGB program is based on enthusiastic support from outfitters, guides, and businesses whose livelihoods depend on healthy populations of native salmonids and coldwater resources. By creating more of a conservation voice from within the industry, Tim believes important and necessary projects can be accomplished.

Trout Unlimited is the country's leading coldwater conservation organization. With over 150,000 members nationwide,TU is responsible for significant restoration and protection of our watersheds, trout and other salmonid populations.
