Thanks guys for the kind words, but I'm just the messenger. A good group of "scouts" is necessary for great fishing and it seems like it's needed for fishing regulations as well
A special thanks to Reds for 1st bringing this to my attention, Skip for giving me the final word, and Keith (AllTackle) for playing a pivotal part in rolling this legislation back
As you can see, the SFAC is continuing to look at gear. If the last gear committee meeting is any indication of what's to come, we need to stay vigilant in protecting each and every way of fishing. Too often, each stakeholder is too quick to "give up" a different stakeholders methods.
As I said to DNR at the last meeting, "DNR has many tools at their disposal in order help conserve the stock", but this three rod rule wasn't even proposed to be a conservation method
MSSA and CCA will be more aware of impending legislation and will notify us in a more timely manner in the future, HOWEVER, don't for an instant think that MSSA represents your "voice". I have personally seen MSSA committee members representing their own personal interests at the expense of other anglers. This bothers me, and it should bother you too. All MSSA members (of which I am not one) should call MSSA and "remind" them that they represent all anglers and that they will be held accountable for their decisions at the upcoming meetings.
Loading the boat today,
