RED LOBSTER & OLIVE GARDEN GO ANTI-ANGLER
"force recreational anglers to have fewer days to fish"

You have to read the article further down to find their quote and attitude and plan against rec fisherman.

" In their official letter, Darden Restaurants claims personal support for helping establish 'catch share' programs in the Gulf of Mexico, explaining how rigid time limits in place by law to rebuild fish stocks should actually be shortened to force recreational anglers to have fewer days to fish for iconic species like red snapper."

After reading this I wonder.... Red Snapper today,,, What's in store for the rest of us tomorrow? :(

Who really gives a shit what Red Lobster thinks or says???.. That place is disgusting anyway.. Their food is rotten..
Any time I ever went there to eat, I got the trots bad!,,

They drown everything in tons of butter and grease... awful.
Haven't been there in a very long time, and never plan to go there again.

Sadly they and other big coporations have the money, and the politicians tend to listen to what they have to say.... bob

Red Lobster and Olive Garden are trying to get back the customers that they lost in the recession. People don't want to spend money on the marginal food that they serve . There is a reason that the customers are not coming back. They found better food at better prices somewhere else.

Too Much Info Bullet, TMI.....

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

Couldn't agree more with BulletBob! Those two food chains are disgusting. I rather head down the shore to a real seafood restaurant before entering one of those establishments.

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

I ate at both places once. I thought the food was crap ,and they support catch shares.
. I will never take my family there again.

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

I got sick at both those places once. Also Boston Market.

I have not gone and never will go to those places again.

And talk about shooting yourself in the foot - who do you think goes out to eat seafood? Vegetarians or fishermen?!??!

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

The disgusting food they serve at Red Lobster doesnt even resemble the food they advertise on those expensive commercials and the Olive Garden should be ashamed thinking they serve real Italian Food...who are they kidding?. Ugh!!

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

you guys get it, but the vast majority of American's don't. Not good seafood, certainly not good Italian. Look at their commercials, different dishes always swimming in butter and cheese, cheese, and more quadruple cheeses. Can't imagine....

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

Wish I ate there so I could boycot but I only had a $5 coupon 20 years ago for Red Lobster and haven't been there since. If you want to punish them "Yelp" bad reviews.

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

Well,
I just added Red Lobster, Olive Garden & Longhorn Steakhouse to the Walfart list. As far as I'm concerned, they can all go f*%k themselves. They will never see a penny of my hard earned money!!!!

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

We who catch our own know but there is 3000 miles between the coasts and most people have no idea what good seafood is. My dad retired and moved to the mid-west where he was raised and he always says one of the things he misses most is good fresh seafood.
Especially for us who live around large metropolitan, culturally diverse areas like New York, Philly etc we can get spoiled by all the good food (pork roll anyone?:D )and restaurants. When I visit half my in-laws in Wisconsin, good food is Applebee's. :( When I visit the other half of my in-laws in New Orleans, well, it's some of the best damn food ever! Oysters, gumbo, gulf shrimp, crawfish mmmmmm!
I always try not to eat a chain restaurants if I can and you'll never catch me at Dead Lobster. The big restaurant chains don't give a crap about recreational fishermen. Eat local and support small business.

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

[I] agree with Frugal the best way is to slam them on yelp and other boards. If we can only get one percent of rec fisherman to do that would go along way to stop these corporations from supporting the environmentalists.:D :cool: ;)

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

Start up the Yelp marathon! Let's get it done!

Red Lobster, Olive Garden=GARBAGE!!!

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

Another reason not to patronize those abominations posing as restaurants!

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

Ditto. Its only their own selfish interests that they care about. I think Ive been to each of these restaurants exactly once. Too much salt, butter and grease. Not "fine dining" at all.

Not the place I ever think of when planning to go out to eat.

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

That's insane we need to support fisherman. Fight for our right to fish!!!

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

Ditto That!

Re: Red Lobster & Olive Garden Go Anti-angler
 

Ditto that. It's an outrage!
