FWP's Future Fisheries Improvement Program works to restore rivers, streams and lakes to improve and restore Montana's wild fish habitats.
Future Fisheries applications are considered every year in June and December. The Future Fisheries Citizen Review Panel reviews panel recommends Future Fisheries projects to fund to the Fish & Wildlife Commission.
