Would be great PR if these folks would donate a percentage of sales in each state to land and stream access for both fishermen and hunters!
 
What is the history behind the Orvis section of Falling Springs? Kinda sounds like what you are talking about.
 
I think in a way they do through the excise tax on fishing equipment sales. I have seen Orvis get involved monetarily in land acquisition causes.
 
The excise tax, everytime someone makes something and sells it in this buisness its taxed. meaning my supplier who pays the tax on the dubbings he makes, and then me on the flies I tie and sell with it get taxed...think about it...theres alot of money there..
