North Platte Walleyes Unlimited raises funds for its educational, charitable, conservation and free fishing pole programs.
North Platte Walleyes has also run a very successful "Toughman" Tournament every year that is one of our main membership drives. You have to be a member to fish it and we are now going on our 34th year! May 2nd, 2026 is the date. The Toughman got its name due to the weather conditions during the time of year we hold it. Depending on mother nature it could be 40 degrees and sunny to 25 degrees and snowing with blizzard conditions! Hence its name! and trust me, if you have ever fished it, you've learned its reputation and qualify as a Toughman!

With the funds raised from your donations throughout the years, we have been able to give out thousands of free fishing poles and hundreds of free tackle boxes to kids throughout the State of Wyoming. Our Casper College scholarship program has been ongoing for many years to help anyone working towards a degree in wildlife biology. We initiated an Ice Fishing Education and Loaner Program. We were also able to participate in and hand out over 700 free poles to kids. We, as an organization, are very active in donating life jackets to the Life Jacket Loaner Program in the Casper Area. Our biggest contribution so far is donating two self-cleaning hatchery fish tanks at Speas to help raise walleye.
With members from all across Wyoming and surrounding States, NPWU is dedicated to improving our fisheries, and we want say thanks for your kindness and generosity. We look forward to working with the Wyoming Game and Fish Department and other Organizations to help shape and improve our walleye fisheries and regulations. We cannot do this without the generous donations and support from our community and the help from all our Volunteers.
Thank You!
