Dave,

Count me in for 2. The wife and I would gladly hold signs.

I hate crowds, but this is worth it.

We best make sure there is not some kind of permit required from the city. We need to be legal about it.

Something else that can set the "mood" in motion is a full-page ad in the Seattle Times. A "shot across the bow", if you will. The Native netters will be then on-notice that Sportfishermen are most concerned about our wild stocks.

Anyone in the group with an advertising background? I am thinking this could be placed after the protest at Pike Place. If it does make the TV news we want to be sure the voting public understands the WHY 50-100 men and women were protesting the Natives netting wild stock.

The non-fishing, but VOTING public need to know the issue, and be provided adequate information about Native fisheries. We can gain a ton of momentum if the average trout fisherman gets involved as well.

Not sure what a full-page ad costs, but I'll toss in $50.00 to get the pot rolling.
