They are the ones that "IN FACT" ultimately voted for lowering the limits and for dredging of oysters on BL. It allowed for many more for oyster permits in BL because of the displaced oyster fisherman in the SE after Katrina.
Everyone on here or anyone that fishes BL, that wants to complain or make comments can attend and are allowed to speak at the monthly commission meetings..All members have a profile on the WL&F site with there emails listed.
How many of U go and make comment?? Email the commission members?? Call them???
Be totally honest..... Not many, I'm sure.. Believe me when I say the Commercial peps are there..
So ask yourself.. What have I done to effect chance?? Have I missed work or a fishing trip to go and present my opinion.. I would guess????? Probably Not...
I'm sure if half the guide's, and 2 or 3 hundred recreational fishermen who fish BL show up at commission meetings every mth.. I'm sure you would get their attention..
That's why the USA is SO GREAT... We as Citizens have the "RIGHT" to voice our opinions, and hold our appointed commission member's accountable.
Again just my HUMBLE OPINION.......

Sure, this is true, but how do you think your voice compares when CCA is voicing the opposite view while writing big checks?
We need to empty CCA's bank account to silence their obfuscation.
