Here is the reply already one of our members got. WOW! I left her name out.
Hi Ron,
I called Morris Barker and the WDFW Commissioners office to complain about the meeting date of April 30. To my surprise they BOTH called me back and said the date is rescheduled to May 7. The place and time will be announced soon.
Now they need to give us back our crabbing rights. Do you think we really have a snowballs chance in hell to achieve this? It seems to be getting harder and harder to have fun and supply ourselves with the natural resources of fish, seafood and wild game like my great great great grandfather did. I can't bring myself to go to the store and purchase any of the above mentioned goodies. I don't trust the way they're commercially processed and sold. Gathering my own fish, seafood and wild game is something I've done for over 40 years. It's a darn shame to be cut out of the loop now, so that the commercial harvesters can over harvest without penalties. Then they force us to go to the store to buy it if we want to eat and enjoy it.
Sometimes it seems like an endless battle and we are at their mercy.....What a shame!
Thanks for the info and I'll keep writing to those yeaaaa hooooo's.
