Spring Creek Redd Count 2025: Make a Direct Impact on Local Trout and Citizen Science

Join us Sunday, November 23rd, 10:00 AM–3:00 PM at the Millbrook Marsh Marboe Pavilion (new location!!) for the annual Spring Creek Redd Count, a hands-on, high-impact day where volunteers survey and map trout redds (nests) that tell the story of our trout population and stream health. For more information on what a redd is, please visit our website here: Redd Count — Spring Creek Trout Unlimited

Why this matters

  • Counting redds provides essential, long-term data used by scientists and the chapter to track spawning success, habitat condition, and population trends.

  • Your participation supports real conservation decisions and strengthens community science that guides restoration and advocacy for Spring Creek.

  • Every count adds to a dataset that helps protect a resource anglers, conservationists, and residents all depend on.

What to expect

  • Team-based field surveying and mapping of redds along assigned stream sections.

  • Short orientation and pairing for new volunteers; experienced counters may work independently.

  • Food and drinks provided on-site.

  • Waders provided upon request.

  • Flexible option for experienced volunteers to complete counts during the week before or after the event if scheduling is tighter.

How to sign up

Please RSVP by clicking the ticket button (TICKET IS FREE) and answer the three questions provided in the questionnaire. If you have a friend/family member coming that won't be signing up, please select the number of tickets that match the number of people coming with you. On the post ticket questionnaire, please add their name and answer the 3 questions about them. If you have any further questions, please email reddcount@springcreektu.org 

Final note

Bring friends, family, or fellow anglers! We welcome new faces and returning volunteers alike. Your boots-on-the-groundwork turns observations into action for Spring Creek’s trout and habitat.
