Not a great sign for us fisheries minister won’t even meet with the public fisheries alliance while they’re in Ottawa.

Ministers like to blow off meetings if they can .... that's always been my experience.... unless they are full blown giving out great news.

So when will the good ole Libs drop the hammer on sportys?

The usual April fools day special?

I grew up fishing spring on the Fraser. Weekends on the gravel bars keeping an ear out for that tell tale bell.

Once it was lost it never came back.

Mike Smyth on CKNW had a great interview with Jesse Zemen from BCWF today, they talked about how important recreational fishing is for our economy, explained the importance of keeping salmon common property for Canadians, explained how we will lose our fishing opportunities if this goes thru, Mike let Jesse answer back on Gord Johns comments on how nobody is trying to take away fishing from the public, he did a great job clarifying that Gord is wrong. Mike also acknowledged this is gaining a lot of steam with town halls packed and big push back from the public.

Jesse is very well spoken and sticks to the important details. He was great at Town Hall in Duncan.
His message is very focused which is what we need. He is the kind of guy we need representing us and explaining the issue to Sports Fishermen and the public. Thanks Jesse!
