Reelfitter, I wasn't singling any one person out. Appreciate you taking the time to submit a reply and voice your opinion. I'm frustrated on what's taken place in fisheries management overall over the last 20-25 years and the shit the recreational sector has had forced down our throats and the damage done to stocks by focusing regulations on what favors the commercial sector and not what favors the health of stocks. It's the 900 lb. gorilla in the room no one wants to talk about. We're going to somehow succeed or fail as a sector and need everyone's best efforts to move the needle in our favor if that's ever to be a reality. How we do that is the million dollar question but it needs to be done because we're all losing a god given resource all because politicians and the federal government are corrupt and don't recognize our rights to a shared resource. It was never that way years ago and there's no legitimate reason it needs to be that way today other than greed and corruption from top to bottom within the agencies which oversee fisheries management. Thanks again for your input.
