My suggestion (since you are all knowing and all seeing) is that you form an organization that will unilaterally bring together all sportfishing interests in the PNW, and use the clout of hundreds of thousands of registered voters to force our politicians to push restoration. Make it happen. Obviously everyone else that has tried has failed, and each time a new apporach is attempted, you see fit to shoot it down. Show me how it is done.
like ive said for years, we need a group to start an inititive and ban the non-tribal nets off the columbia, keep them in the safe area`s and give more esa take to the sports fleet so we can have a longer season, it benifits the local economys and also, educate the public on the fact that the tribes catch enough fish for them, like ive said before, this state is 75 percent commercial harvest and 25 percent sports harvest, if you want to improve sport fishing do somthing to improve it.

Well, once you get approval for tax exempt status, and hire a couple world class lobbiests, you can start charging people 25 bucks a year to build a bank of funds up for the legal fights you will be facing. How long would it take to form an effective lobbying group, recruit and coordinate the efforts of 5 to 6 thousand people, and become a credible force in PNW politics?
OR, you could join an organization that already did this, and is working to remove commercial harvest from the LCR.

I said Boater was part of the problem here in the PNW, not because he won't join CCA, but because he consistently tries to drive wedges between people and groups that are actually working to try to fix something (anything).
i just call the b-s like i see it, sorry if facts offend you.
