Check out the sportfishing forum or just go to the (google) FRA fishing rights alliance. They stopped these closures in the Gulf. Everybody needs to get involved. They won't stop if we don't stop them.

If you weren't able to attend one of the SAMFC public comment meetings on the upcoming Grouper and Snapper regulations, you may submit them electronically. I have created a form to electronically enter your comments on the upcoming Amendment 16-Grouper, and Amendment 18-Red Snapper actions that the SAMFC are considering. The comments will be emailed directly to the appropriate parties, along with some of our politicians.

Folks, this is not a drill, they are talking some pretty significant season closures, possible complete closure of the Red Snapper fishery, and cutting bag limits in 1/2 or more. You only have till 5PM Friday to enter these.

The link is at http://SAMFC.Deep-Blue-Sea.org

The SAMFC needs to hear from you.
