Quite a piece of yellow journalism. "Angler" connotes a
non-commercial rod& reel fisherman. I don't know of ANY
non-commercial folks against this bill.

As I previously posted ),
the only people not on board this notion are the commercial fishermen
and the Marine Fisheries Commission that protects them to the
detriment of tourism and non-commercial fishing.....

For all of you whiny political types, the bill is, for the most part,
a Republican bill......






Well, that means that sometime in the future, the Republicans will sell
your state's citizen fishing rights to a private corporation.
