It is important to contact your reps. BUT does it strike anyone funny that WDFW is not taking more of a position supporting this? I'm not at all saying they oppose funding. What I am saying is I get the feeling that they are "going with the flow" with whatever happens. Not being pro-active.

Guys, These are fish we have paid for. Why is it constantly necessary to have to convince everyone, our WDFW included, of the importance of these fisheries as a revenue generator?

Guess I'd just like to see ANY govt. group fight the good fight for the sportsmen. We continue to pay the most and get the least in returns on funding. It's getting old. All the pleas and arguments have been re-gurgitated throughout the 90's and I've not noticed any huge increases or opportunities for us.

Just venting-keep fighting!!!!!!
