Once again the lobbyist for the Conservation Law foundation, Sierra Club, The Animal Welfare fund, PETA and the Audobon Society have been able to push through laws that will restrict the impact of human use on animal species. Trouble is is that there are way more recreational and commercial fisherman than the total memberships of those organizations but they do a much better job or representing thier views than we do of ours. Sportfisherman have always been a distant second when trying to organize themselves into a powerfull lobby. The money is there and the numbers are there but the willingness to get out and get organized is not, so...........
