Harold Klausner
Treasurer and Club Manager, The Perfect Drift Flyfishing Club
"Dear Clint,
On behalf of The Perfect Drift Flyfishing Club, I would like to express our sincere gratitude for the exceptional work you and your team has undertaken to enhance the river for our club. Your commitment to excellence in river restoration and client satisfaction far surpassed our expectations.
Initially, we discussed repairing a specific riverbank in need of restoration. However, your vision coupled with your team’s efforts, resulted in the creation of a new section of river that has delighted our membership.The improvements you have made have not only enhanced the river’s accessibility and sustainability but have also significantly enriched the fishing experience for our members. All feedback received from our members has been overwhelmingly positive. Your experience, attention to detail, and collaborative approach made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. It was a pleasure working with you and the team at Freestone Aquatics.
We genuinely appreciate the effort and care you have invested in this project. We would be honored to recommend your services to others. Please extend our thanks to everyone involved. We look forward to working with you again in the future.
Sincerely,
Harold Klausner"

“When we and Jefferson County engaged a team of senior engineering students at Colorado School of Mines to design habitat improvements on this reach of the North Fork South Platte, we turned to Freestone Aquatics to help advise given their extensive experience in creating improved trout habitat on that challenging river. Their know-how and generosity in sharing it pro-bono helped us meet two key goals: designing quality habitat improvements for an important reach of public water, and engaging and educating the next generation of stream conservationists.”

“With the HEART project, Freestone Aquatics helped our Cherry Creek Anglers chapter to create a unique opportunity for mobility-impaired anglers – not just the usual wheelchair-compatible fishing pier, but the chance to fish from a trail running along and even into the stream, in a more natural setting, offering the full experience of fishing a river. Freestone’s creativity, diligence and partnership helped to create a successful on-the-ground project that allows all anglers, regardless of physical ability, to enjoy a complete angling experience.”

President, Colorado River Headwaters Chapter
“Freestone does build holding water for trout, but at a depth where sediment can continue to move – something they do exceptionally well. We found nice fish, but we didn’t have to fish in what looked like a pond instead of a river. Now this section of the Fraser is the healthiest I’ve seen it in the 47 years I’ve lived here.”
Cam Chandler
Past President, Colorado Trout Unlimited
“In my day job I work in the construction industry, and I know the importance of hiring an experienced and reliable contractor. But finding one that is also willing to invest its own resources to ensure a project’s success is rare. That’s just the kind of partnership we’ve developed with Freestone. We deeply appreciate Freestone’s support, expertise and creativity, and we feel fortunate to work with them.”
