The thing is folks that the FTC thread is about getting information to folks that is hid from the public view by the process and Grays Harbor. The Advocacy is about the fish. Early on when working the issues Tim coined the phrase " The Big Lie " to describe this massive push to save salmon by habitat restoration and just disregard harvest which means we as citizens have footed a bill in the billions now, for what? Habitat is critical but it is harvest as far back as when Teddy Roosevelt was pres that has time & time again driven the collapses in the last hundred years.

I think the last straw for the guys was when before any terminal harvest Willapa would not make Chinook escapement even with the new management plan. So for the Advocacy it is game on and my brother is going to drive the establishment right up the wall. His back ground of dealing with oil related regulations, feds & state, and fighting the oil companies tooth and nail has given him a set of skills that the fish establishment does not normally see in fish world.

The key for all of us that value fish is simple. We can not force the change and if we do try will likely fail. It is the Rec fisher, farmers, cities, land owners just plain ALL of us that can. When we all come together and put aside our differences and tell WDF&W and the other agencies NO MORE MONEY until this stops. It is really a WE THE PEOPLE thing that is the power and the Advocacy has that thought front and center.
