What are some of your concerns or have you conceded defeat and are willing to forget this is happening?

Just a thought........maybe we should send these posts to people who do make the regulations. Let them say that enough is enough. When "they" get tired of reading all of this, maybe they will be convinced we know what we are talking about and what we want.

Problem is the fishing community can't agree on anything .
MANY of us suggested a slot limit years ago when we had the original meetings .
Guys who couldn't catch a limit already banged their chest for status quo.
Instead they lost 2 fish . And their chance at a slot fish.

Guys bitched about paying for a 15 dollar license . Instead we lose MILLIONS in government grants yearly that promote better fishing .

By the time guys get on the same page the fishery will sadly be gone.

No need for waters to feed the world here.
It should be our resource to manage and fish for .
I don't see Montana or Idaho or Colorado sending us their elk and antelope to eat .
Being a shore based state we should have more input on what goes on here
