Invest in your future fishing and spend the $30 so you can fish in the future.
There are a ton of people out there that want nothing more than to take away our right to fish and CCA is the only organization out there that is doing anything about it.
Every person on this message board should be a member of CCA.
It's time to man up or shut up!

I sincerely hope that you are not in any way affiliated with the CCA aside from being a member. I absolutely wouldn't contribute to anyone going around calling other members an embarrassment to the community. The fact that you resort to degrading other members of the community is a poor example of the community should do to newer anglers like myself.

Its also very pretentious of you assuming everyone has $ to throw around for every cause that you believe in. The fact of the matter is I don't have to, even if I do have the money because there are other positive ways to contribute to the community outside of monetary support.

You may want to follow Saba's lead. He seems to understand that you get more support by encouraging people and allowing people to sign up at their financial availability.
