I crafted (for what it's worth) my own letter after reading the text of the legislation, and sent it off to the powers that be. You can find proposed legislation at:

http://www.mass.gov/legis/bills/senate/st00/st00529.htm

It is time to get involved with the Freedom to Fish (F2F) act and work diligently to make sure that we meet two goals. 1) ensure that we recreational fisherman maintain our access and 2) preserve and maintain the fragile marine ecosystem that we all rely on.

GET INVOLVED!

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Unfortunately, the version of the bill on mass.gov is NOT the bill as it currently reads. In fact, that version bearss no resemblance to the current S529. I have a mark-up of the bill that I will e-mail to anyone who needs the real thing. Just shoot me an e-mail: zharvey@thefisherman.com.
