I "borrowed" this quote from Jim Donofrio, with his permission ofcourse.

"Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you."
Jefferson

Get on the bus! I will save you a seat.

To those who are "thinking about going", I have this to say.

1. It is one day of your time.

2. It's "your chance" to be heard and make a difference.

3. This will impact your kids ability to fish.

4. It could be a "once in a lifetime" deal.

5. It may very well be your best chance to "change things for the better".

6. You will be able to say that "you were there".

7. Push has come to shove, we need all the help we can get.

8. Put in for a "Personal Day" at work. I did, because to me, "it's personal"!

I hope to see you "all" there!

We will remember who showed and who didn't. I will know where to do business after the 24th. and where to avoid. I will let my dollars talk!

Amazing scenario that we have to talk boycott & shame our own fishing community into saving their own A''''S ! What's it gonna take to get fisherman on board transportation of their choice, for the trip to DC ! Don't be left out ,there are probably some free seats still available,make the call if you cannot afford the $'s, that's why those offers were made to help out, take advantage !!

Sal,

What I meant,was by taking a day and going to DC we will make a difference and changes to the law WILL happen. I for one will support those who felt it necessary to stand and be counted. Why should those that choose to do nothing get the FULL benefits that change will bring.

The industry as a whole has preferred to let a few do all the work, I respect these few and all who publicly support the cause, I understand people have other obligations, but I will encourage others to spend their dollars wisely. Let us show our support to all who participate, so that they thrive because of their efforts, as the others might not be around much longer due to their lack of effort.

Jake,

How do you know who will be participating.?

You and I have never met yet I may be standing next to you in D.C. I will not be carrying a banner promoting my business as that is not the purpose of the rally.

You will not see me on one of the buses because I will most likely be travelling with either sales reps from Penn, Abu Garcia and Shakespeare. Or I may join the group that makes Tsunami rods. All these guys are going but they are not bragging about it on NJFishing.com as it is not their goal to try and make a profit from this all too important march.
