Off there web site: CCA’s presence in the federal court system has been critical in conserving America’s fisheries. CCA’s legal defense fund has been used to defend net bans and the implementation of bycatch reduction devices, and to support pro-fisheries legislation and battle arbitrary no-fishing zones.



You may want to go do some research on that one Todd before you say they can’t. The CCA have, from my understanding. They are behind the stoppage of some major commercial netting in Texas and I believe Florida and a few other east coast commercial fisheries, and the fish have prospered very well. We all seam to think we know what’s best for fish restoration, but we keep fighting amongst our selves. I think Aunty is rite here and the CCA have proven them selves in other states, they have power were it counts, and that’s what we need to get heard, and Like she said POWER IS MONEY. Jim W
