For over 20 years, FlyWater (Founded by engineers and fishing guides) has been at the fore front of river restoration in Colorado. The company has completed hundreds of projects all over the state, on rivers of every shape and size, working with state, local and federal governments, NGO’s and private entities.  FlyWater works diligently to protect rivers and the
organisms that call them home. FlyWater owner, Corey Engen, will be talking about the history of FlyWater, the growing field of “river work” and some of the more memorable projects that
the company has been involved in.
