GCCA disbanded, shut down, closed the doors, called it quits because it was all volunteer and run by donations but after the gill net ban was put in place funding dried up and they disbanded. then CCA came along and saw they could make money while "claiming" to be working on behalf of sportsmen and they started telling people they just changed the name because it made people more willing to donate knowing they had done something already. this lie was started years ago and lives on today strong as ever and only the people who used to belong to GCCA know and remember the truth.
if you tell a lie long enough people believe its true and this is how this false idea that just because they used the same letters it must be the same organization but the Gulf Coast Conservation Association GCCA is in no way, manor, shape, or form, related to the Coastal Conservation Association CCA.
they only used the same letters to mislead people and lay false claim to the accomplishments of a completely different organization then CCA
CCA has no more claim to the gill net ban then me saying I personally got gill nets banned all on my own without any help from anyone or any organization. CCA's claim to banning gill nets is no more truthful then mine
