About The Wild Waters Fund
Exploration with Purpose. At Isolation Outfitters, we explore some of the world’s most remote and pristine habitats — from backcountry rivers and high-country lakes to tropical flats and ocean estuaries. The Wild Waters Fund is our commitment to ensuring these wild waters and the communities that rely on them remain vibrant for generations.
We dedicate 1% of all Isolation Outfitters annual sales to protect freshwater and saltwater ecosystems worldwide through conservation projects, education, and sustainable tourism initiatives.
“Protecting Wild Places, One Trip at a Time.”
By traveling with Isolation Outfitters, you’re doing more than exploring untouched waters — you’re helping restore habitats, support local communities, and preserve the places we all love to fish. Every cast, every adventure, leaves a lasting mark on the health of these waters and the people who rely on them.
HOW IT WORKS
Every trip you take with Isolation Outfitters contributes directly to The Wild Waters Fund.
This revenue is invested into projects that restore and protect river, lake, and coastal habitats, support local communities and guide networks, promote sustainable angling practices and catch-and-release ethics, or fund education, awareness campaigns, and research into sustainable fisheries.
By linking trips to tangible outcomes, our anglers can see the real-world impact of their participation.
“Every Cast Supports a Healthier River, Lake, and Ocean.”
Fishing isn’t just a sport — it’s a journey into some of the planet’s most remote and breathtaking wild places. Every river you cast on, every saltwater flat you wade, connects you to ecosystems and communities that depend on healthy, vibrant waters.
IMPACT & STORIES
The Wild Waters Fund supports projects within New Zealand, Patagonia, Mexico, the Pacific, and beyond.
Examples include river restoration efforts in New Zealand’s backcountry waters, community-led flats conservation projects in tropical destinations, habitat monitoring and fishery protection in remote saltwater estuaries, and education campaigns teaching ethical angling practices.
Guest trips and stories are integral — every expedition provides insights, photos, and local engagement that feed back into conservation awareness and stewardship.
“Preserving the Waters We All Love.”
The Wild Waters Fund ensures that pristine rivers, lakes, flats, and oceans remain accessible and thriving. With 1% of all operating sales income dedicated to conservation, your adventure today contributes to healthy habitats and sustainable fly fishing for tomorrow.
PARTNERS & COMMUNITIES
We collaborate with trusted guides, lodges, and local conservation organizations worldwide. These partnerships ensure that every habitat — freshwater or saltwater — benefits from sustainable management, community support, and ethical fly fishing practices.
By supporting local communities and ecosystems, we strengthen the long-term health of the fisheries that define the fly fishing experience.
“From Remote Rivers to Distant Flats — Your Journey Makes a Difference.”
Every trip with Isolation Outfitters directly supports habitat restoration, community initiatives, and conservation education. By exploring wild waters, you are helping to safeguard the ecosystems and communities that sustain them, turning every cast into meaningful action.
