Idk, I don't track every freaking thing CCA backs. That wasn't my point.
Funny **** is, you ***** about them caving and not going with science, but the meeting I was at they went against the science and went with public opinion.
So which is right? Should they represent the public, or go hy the science? You can't have both, and they are a public agency. They represent CCA membership as well. Maybe the CCA was more vocal on the tripletail matter than anyone else, just as the majority was more vocal in favor of unified statewide openings for shrimp season, as opposed to those who wanted them to leave it alone.
They cave to the majority. Doesn't matter what the situation or what the science. They aim to please the most vocal constituents who have the most power to hurt them or cause them trouble.
How many people are CCA members vs those that oppose CCA? This seems like a simple thing to understand..a public agency that has never been known for making decisions based solely on science. Anyone with half a brain knows that is how that agency has always operated...BASED ON PUBLIC OPINION! Look at anything. Turkey seasons, duck seasons, shrimp seasons, limits, etc. Whoever holds the most influence gets what they want. Doesn't matter if its CCA, shrimpers, oystermen, or southwest Louisiana duck hunters. If you are the most vocal, you will likely get your way.
