I attended the Fishermen’s Rally in Wash DC yesterday… The attendance was good but I was disappointed even more recreational fishermen did not take this opportunity to make themselves heard. I here many anglers complain about the current regulations and this was the perfect time to make those feelings known. That said the organizers urged all in attendance to go back home and spread the word that we all need to contact our reps in Washington and demand that they back bill HR5425,R1584 and S1225 which puts flexibility back into the stock rebuilding process. PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO CONTACT YOUR REPS. Info can be found at….John
Fishermen to March on Washington, DC
Recreational and commercial fishermen, support business owners, families, and community leaders will gather at the steps of our Nation’s Capitol on February 24, 2010 from noon to 3 PM to show congress a united front of the impacts caused by the unintended impacts of the Magnuson Stevens Conservation and Management Act as revised effective January, 2007 (RMSA). The overly restrictive management requirements created by the RMSA based on non scientific arbitrary deadlines are forcing anglers off the water, eliminating commercial fishing, preventing consumers from purchasing locally caught fresh seafood, destroying small family businesses, increasing unemployment, and adversely affecting coastal communities. Bus trips are leaving from various locations throughout the state. Go to www.ssfff.net • www.unitedboatmen.com or www.joinrfa.org. for bus rip locations…
ATTENTION FISHERMEN
In a historic show of solidarity, recreational and commercial fishermen will gather together on the steps of the Capitol on February 24, 2010 from noon until 3 p.m. in an organized demonstration against the unintended negative impacts of the Magnuson Stevens Conservation and Management Act (MSA), the federal fisheries law which was revised in January of 2007.
Buses heading to Washington, DC will be departing from locations around New York and New Jersey.
