What time is the San Diego group leaving for the meeting on the 19th ??

Depends on how much of the meeting you can, or want to attend. I would suggest leaving before 3PM, for traffic reasons. Public comment tomorrow is at 7PM, but the meeting starts at 8:00AM.

Tman · 05-18-2009, 03:20 PM

We are game on...thanks Chris for staying on top of this...

Don't know what Clay will say this time, but it comes from within. Maybe he will touch on the fact that is a safe launch, even for kids.

I am humbled (and outshined...

) just for the main fact that a 9 yr old understands the importance of being heard. And this time, he doesn't get to miss school yet still wants to go...safe to say he understands what is at stake...

See all of you there manana...

Any updates on the progress?

I was living in NorCal when the MLPA's came through and they pretty much arbitratily closed sections of the coast. Thanks to the tireless efforts of an few kayak fishermen and organizations some spots were saved. But it took a hell of a lot of effort. I'd hate to see good spots closed down there as well so if you can, get down to the hearings and be heard. If you can't make it support someone who is going to talk or an organization that will.

In Washington the MLPA's are coming as well and we're doing the best we can to be prepared to preserve what we've got.

Z

Are we going to let this happen to us?

Sometimes you pick and choose your battles...

Do not sit on the fence on this one, and hope that others will bail us all out....

Thanks for that Zee...

The battle lines have been drawn and by standing by and not taking action you are doing exactly what the pro-MLPA people are hoping for!!!!

SO STOP BEING A WANKER AND STAND UP AND BE COUNTED!!!! GO TO THE MEETINGS!!!

If you aren't part of the solution, you are part of the problem.

chris

C. Cary · 05-19-2009, 08:14 AM

I have previously replied that I will at the meeting tonight.

I plan to leave Kearny Mesa area at 4pm.

I live in Carmel Valley.

Anyone on the fence and need a ride? or wanting to car pool?

Best would be Kearny Mesa or North on the 805 or 5 corridor.

I will be the chubby guy in the black shirt getting picked on by the tow-headed 9 year old, known as Clay!!

Why aren't more of you going to this meeting??????

tylerdurden · 05-19-2009, 08:21 AM

One more thing, try to get there as soon as possible. They may stop taking public comment cards at 6pm, meaning if you show up at 7pm you won't be able to speak. Also, if you don't respond when they call your name to speak, you miss out.

We should get there in plenty of time, so if you are worried, pm me and I'll give you my phone # and can fill out a card for you.

edit->

It would be easier if you just pm'd me your info
Name
address
phone#
email address

I am pretty sure that is all they wanted last time.

I'll stop checking my pms at about 12:30 today.

Matt · 05-19-2009, 11:42 AM

Tman and I are heading up around 230 and picking up Clay from school, so we should be up there fairly early. If you can't find the Kayak section please feel free to text or call me at 619.760.3792

zenspearo · 05-19-2009, 11:59 AM

Howdy fellow kayakers.

We have 26 spearos signed up to go to the meeting to speak out against closures.

http://spearboard.com/showthread.php?t=84279

I am hoping to have more kayak fishermen there so as to have another consumptive group outdo spearos (thus shaming even more spearos into showing up at future meetings).

We won't be caught off guard like what happened in Norcal.

By the way...a hearty thanks to everyone. It's going to be nice to be in a meeting room with a lot of friendlies... Black shirt everyone.

You guys rock!

Iceman · 05-19-2009, 04:50 PM

As soon as my last rental comes in I am out the door.......hope to be there before 7PM

zenspearo · 05-19-2009, 09:15 PM

I hope I'm not stealing your thunder but you kayakers rock tonight. You did outstanding. Beyond highlighting the needs of kayak fishermen in general, you all did great with the focus on La Jolla, it's unique launching spot for kayaks, and the importance of keeping this area open for kayak fishing. All of this came through loud and clear.

From a San Diegan and a spearo--thank you.

P.S. You humbled us. I think there were more of you guys tonight--for the first time and I hope that will continue.
