Holy Mackerel · 10-02-2010, 07:28 PM

I was waiting to post this until we got into October, but we only have a couple more times to speak up to the DFG commission. Each time to speak counts, show up to cede time, or speak, the more fishermen who show up for support the better!

Please attend...

Holy Mackerel · 10-02-2010, 09:17 PM

BUMP, yes, this is a quick bump, however, your committment, and participation is too.............

steveooo · 10-02-2010, 10:06 PM

In!

dgax65 · 10-02-2010, 11:13 PM

Has the agenda been released yet? I checked the website and they don't have it posted yet.

http://www.fgc.ca.gov/meetings/2010/2010mtgs.asp

I doubt they will have public comments for this issue on both days.

cowboybill · 10-03-2010, 06:19 AM

I wonder if they will change the meeting at the last minute or ???

How long does each person have to speak?

FISHIONADO · 10-03-2010, 07:03 AM

old_rookie · 10-03-2010, 07:59 AM

but we will update this thread when the specific details come out.

Good to see you Chris!

I'll be there.

Yes, most likely they'll take comment on only one day.

The commission usually allots 2 to 3 minutes per speaker, but we expect this meeting to be packed. Actual time provided will be less. At a previous meeting, it took - TEN - ceded speaker's cards to add a minute of extra time for a particular speaker.

I can't stress enough how much showing in strength helps our cause. You HAVE to be there. Every time we've failed to show, we get hammered.

JoeBeck · 10-03-2010, 04:25 PM

I'll be there and in SB.

roadx · 10-03-2010, 05:18 PM

CurtyL · 10-04-2010, 07:47 AM

Here we go folks

FISHIONADO · 10-04-2010, 08:16 AM

It's seriously time for folks to step up. It was disappointing to see how many regulars never got involved in the last rounds. It's understandable that some people can't attend the meetings, but there are other ways to support. If you can't attend in person write letters or talk someone else into going. We made a difference last time and we can this time also. The more people we have that present themselves in a respectful manner to stand up for smart decisions (based on science not emotion) the better our chances for success.

I enjoy fresh seafood and I want a sustainable harvest and ecosystem. Nothing more or less. I completely support the DFG enforcing the regulations required to maintain a sustainable ecosystem. Let's set up the DFG to do their job with slot limits or whatever is required to manage each species. It seems the 28" minimum and removal of gill nets was a huge success for the SoCal WSB, been enjoying that success at the dinner table!
