Karl. I haven't bought a freshy license in 10 years, My clamming permits are only 6 bucks , I think, and Tony does a grand job of managing the greatest flats in the World. And I'm just this close to driving the beaches without a permit, 150 bucks and I've been out twice since. Look , I don't drive on vegetation, I don't climb hills, I don't run over birds( and I've seen evidence of that , and it makes me sick), so what's the gripe with me and other guys like myself who just want to fish? What did we do to deserve being "fined" on a yearly basis? I just don't get it. It's never going to end, the pocket picking ,until we somehow make it end. So what do we do?

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
