Seems ironic that their own marketing pitch is "Why so many allow themselves to be led by the nose lacks plausible explanation. Perhaps you have been so lulled by the siren song of ignorance that you don’t even notice your white-knuckle grip on it. You feel bold and unique, but alas are nothing but sheep, willingly being herded to and fro.... Truth be told, you are being coddled by ethically challenged “pay no attention to the man behind the curtain” marketers who layer imagined attributes specifically engineered to lead you by the nose. Should you decide to abdicate your ability to make decisions for yourself, then you are perhaps deserving of the pabulum they serve. ...(We demand) retribution for their outrageously conniving, intentionally misleading, blatantly masturbatory and fallacious ad campaigns. We demand the unmitigated, transparent truth. We demand forthright honesty. We want justice! Call ‘em out and line ‘em up against the wall... NOW."

Yes, Surfrider can claim that no funds from Stone were spent on pushing for the most restrictive closure possible. I can also tell you that when I was in college, when I was given some cash to help with rent/tuition/books I would take the money I had saved for books and buy beer, replacing it with what I was just given for books. It all goes into the general coffers and gets applied as they want.

Believe what you want, they say one thing and spend to support another.

Paul Lebowitz sums it up pretty well:



OK, my rant is over. Sorry to derail your thread on a good day on the water. My PM to Silbaugh was just to let him know that there are wounds that are far from healing over this process and the way we were railroaded. Great fishing areas of Malibu are now off limits due to teh un-scientific and non-collaborative process we witnessed firsthand. The compassionate looks of dismay on the face of the board members as the high-school students that were bussed in cried over how we were destroying the (non-existent) coral reefs off California as their proud teachers tallied up the extra credit points.

I was trying to find and resurrect the list of major supporters of the closures but the boards on Jason's site seem to have been down for a while. When they are back up I will post, in another thread, the list of companies that helped take away our fishing grounds.

Balast Point shall be the beer of choice! Wish I would've taken a pic of yellowtail IPA I had. Too bad we didn't catch one to go with the beer

i had no idea that they had supported that. ill make sure to pass that info around at work among the people who fish and hunt. there should be a few less customers for Stone.

It's an older statement, either people on here are misinformed or the statement is shady? Not sure.

Be careful what "bum" you donate to. They may use your money in ways you don't approve of.

(Now I don't have to drink stone in hiding)

And I do agree Sculpin is the best.. Try Sculpin Grapefruit if you ever get a chance.

I had no idea about this stone thing, glad they don't support mpla. Dorado by ballast point beats sculpin...10% need I say more?

10% vs. 7% Enough said.
