Get ready for an evening of fun, fundraising, and fishy business at the Flathead Valley Trout Unlimited’s Annual Banquet & Auction — our biggest bash of the year to protect and restore local coldwater fisheries!
💥 Why You Should Come:
This is not your average banquet. Your $70 ticket includes a delicious catered dinner, entry into one of our stellar door prize drawings, and access to all the night’s action:
🌀 Live & Silent Auctions
🎁 Gear-packed Raffles (hello, raft package!)
🍻 Bottomless beer glasses and full cash bar
🔥 High-energy vibes and a great conservation cause
Whether you're a die-hard angler or just care about clean water and local wildlife, this night is for you. All proceeds go directly toward preserving native trout, improving family-friendly fishing access, and defending the Flathead's aquatic ecosystems.
🎟️ TICKETS:
👉 General Admission: $70
👉 Cutthroat Package: $100 — dinner, raft raffle tickets + beer glass
👉 Bull Trout Package: $170 — dinner, raffles galore, custom fly puck, and more!
🧢 Bonus: Bull Trout ticket holders get a shot at our exclusive raffle hats — each numbered, each unique. Hat #1? Auctioned live.
🌟 NEW THIS YEAR:
The Silent Auction is fully online — bid early and bid often using your smartphone or tablet via our online portal. This is a great way to support FVTU if you cannot attend in person.
🙋♂️ The Live Auction
That's still happening and is going down the old-school way — in person, with cheers and fast paddles.
🚣♂️ Grand Prize Raffle:
A 14-ft NRS Slipstream Raft Package — tickets sold at the banquet and from FVTU members. $10 each or 3 for $20. Get ‘em while they last.
🙌 Wanna Volunteer?
We need hands for setup, takedown, and the main event. It’s a great way to get involved and meet some fish-minded folks. Sign up on our volunteer page.
🧊 No membership required — just bring your love of rivers and good times.
Let’s raise a glass (and some serious funds) for the future of Flathead waters!
