Default Petition to stop new MCR time restrictions

I know many here only saltwater fish but I hope you'll help us out in this matter. Situations like this are a slippery slope and everyone who enjoys the outdoors needs to stick together to set a precedence.

Guys, here is the link to the petition to stop the new Merrill creek res. Time restrictions. Our license fees 100% built that fishery from scratch through whatever agreement was made when the reservoir was built and restricting our time of use to 3-4 hours before sundown is totally unacceptable! Please sign and share. We are also currently pursuing other avenues to fight this as well.

Done and making this a sticky.

I don't fish Merill Creek and many of you may not either but Chris is correct... This is a slippery slope and we as a fishing community all need to get involved when these things come up since the next area might be yours.

Done !

We may be fighting to keep the turbine field open to fisherman. They may require boats to go around the fields instead of cutting through to their home ports, adding many miles to every trip....
