A few thoughts...
1. I see no problem w/publishing who is for or against the ban. If you are a shop owner and take a stand (in either direction) please have the conviction to stand behind it and deal with the repurcusions.
2. If this WAS a blacklist, which I don't think it was, THIS is not the place for it.
3. I don't give a flying f'all where bait shops will be getting there bait from IF Ark is kicked out. It is absolutely assinign(sp), to make a decision the ultimately effects the health of the bay based on the economics of a bait/tackle shop. Although I do realize $$$ talks.
4. If a void opens up regarding getting bait it will be filled. If there is $$$ in it I gaurentee someone will exploit it.
5. I'm sorry, I have no sympathy for commecial fishermen (most). I work w/ a reformed commercial dragger. The stories he tells make me ashamed to be a human being. I really have no reason the believe others are much different. Again, I am sure there are exceptions.
