Montana Trout Foundation Solicits Grant Applications for 2022 Grants

The Montana Trout Foundation (MTF) is once again requesting grant proposals from individuals or groups this fall; the deadline for submission of the proposals is December 1, 2021 (preference is to receive applications electronically, PDF is ideal). MTF works to preserve and enhance Montana's one-of-a-kind trout resources through funding scientific research, fisheries education, and trout habitat enhancement.

This year's grant cycle is intended to promote restoration and enhancement of wild trout habitat.

Other funding sources for improving fisheries habitat, such as Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks' Future Fisheries Improvement Program, are intended for project implementation. An MTF grant can fund initial project assessment, planning, and design that will qualify a project for additional funding through these other sources. Applications will be reviewed later in the fall and winter, and grants funded beginning in the spring of 2022.
