Effective May 31st, Whitney Tilt will step down as Executive Director of the AFFTA Fisheries Fund but will continue to work with AFFTA to integrate a strong stewardship and conservation core within AFFTA. This is part of an ongoing strategic planning process that AFFTA’s leadership is undertaking.
“I have greatly enjoyed the opportunity to work with the fly fishing industry and help drive their commitment to protecting the fishery resources the industry depends on. Our continuing small grants program supporting on-the-ground projects and the launch of the “For Tomorrow’s Fish” campaign are two good examples of that work.”
In addition to continuing to assist AFFTA, Whitney will continue his conservation work in Bozeman, Montana. He can be reached at whitneytilt@gmail.com.
