its YOUR job to talk him into supporting it, not ours, otherwise we don't need you if you cant do your job, that's why we give you money, not to have good times with it and promote yourselves. you have been living off of the dead carcass of the gill net ban that had wide spread universal support across the whole spectrum of people who fish recreationally or commercially but "what have you done lately" literally?
I don't see CCA doing ANYTHING at election time "making" these politicians positions on these things well known so they can be held accountable. I haven ever seen a single flier or commercial during election time calling out these politicians for their positions on things. if you don't embaress them and call attention to it they have no reason to take you seriously or care what you say because they pay no price for hoping in bed with the special interest lobby groups. people don't like greedy politicians being bought and paid for and a large portion of the non sportsman voting public WILL change their votes over such info but ONLY if its made known.

Totally disagree with you not contacting YOUR rep. They want to hear from their constituents, not organizations. Believe me.
If not, why would the NRA, AARP, and others contact their membership to contact their reps on important issues. This isn't aimed at CCA. Any organization works this way.
