No rich elitist here . My friends and I are just ordinary guys, that work ordinary jobs ( I'm a cement flatworker, ), with ordinary pay. The reason I joined the OFC, is to access these private roads, properties etc, along with my favorite streams. A great alternative to buying, and a whole lot less expensive.

As far as having to join a club to fish or hunt, how else are you going to drive down someone else's driveway, park on their lawn, and walk thru their yard to get there ? These landowners are very generous to share their beautiful surroundings with us. Not everyone who owns a home on a stream is like this. Denied access to everyone exists on every river I know. Restricted access to a few is just as common. It's up to the property owner to decide who they want on their land, and how they choose to id these same people is also their choice. If it involves the OFC, great bonus for me, if not I'll slip on downriver(or drive), and continue my journey in search of that 20 # steelie. Respecting landowner rights all the way.

Tight lines,
