Grow up Barney.

Im beginning to doubt your sincerity in solving the issue. All you want to do is bitch and lash out at another group that took on harvest reform. You spent a great deal of time trying to derail the effort and get them to work on the dams. Its interesting that, even though we dont know anything official or unofficial about the direction of the fight, you just want to make it personal.

Its clear, you dont like selective gear, based your assumption that more fish will be allocated to the commercial fishery. Its you thats been pushing for safe areas and you got pissed that cca didnt sign on to it, with NSIA. You obviously saw the post by LH about working with CCA and you also saw the article in the Reel News about the authors efforts to get them to work together. We dont know anything official based that information. You are making assumptions. We dont even know if there is enough room in the safe areas for all the boats.

We could speculate that more fish are being planted in the safe areas to compensate commercial boats for any losses, they might incurr in the main stem or to compensate them with more fish from an outside source, to compensate the change over to selective gear.

When you start worrying more about credit than fish counts, its time to grow up.

If NSIA and another organization or two, combined efforts to make that happen, its a win for the fish and for sportfishing. If the efforts of those groups led to that win, then all of those groups will earn further support from their members and from others who will recognize that other issues could be solved by these groups.
