PRBuzz, thanks for posting the details of the Bill.
This designation will bring more public attention to a fish we obviously love and respect. It could help lead to more future support for cleaning rivers, getting more enforcement, more research, and regulations that put the restoration of the fish first. This isn't about "game fish" status, or recs vs commercials -- it's all about awareness and bestowing a status on a fish (our fish) that deserves the title "National Fish of the United States" a whole lot more than the American Eagle deserves the designation National Bird. JMHO
