Unfortunately\, over fishing and habitat degradation over 150+ years has taken its toll. In 2023\, TU designated the Coaster brook trout range in Southern Lake Superior as a Shared Priority Water. Since then\, TU has begun the “Coaster Brook Trout Initative”\, an effort to bring together the “Coaster” community to collaborate on rehabilitation of these unique fish. \nAnnual OBTU Elections:  Board Members: As previously announced on December 17\, 2025\, Art Cottrell and Steve Shapiro are nominated to serve a full 3 year term as Board Directors.
