RI - Amendment 6 meetings - Wednesday Night - who is going?

That man doesn't strike me as the kind of man who speaks what he truly believes but speaks the way a few people want him to speak.

He should have at least quoted Charlie or some of the Block Island charter captains, a surf caster--get some line in from the other side.

The truth is that there is nothing that anyone can do to get a successful spawn and the resulting big year class of fish. The success of the spawn is up to the weather gods and there is nothing any human can do about it. All we can do is try to make sure that there are enough spawning females to produce the eggs when the weather does turn favorable.

Then after a "successful spawn", we cross our fingers say a few novena's light a few candles at church and hope and pray that x amount of fish make it past age 5 so they are at a lower risk of dying from myco (age 8-9), then maybe they become successful spawners... maybe...
