Obama and anti-groups are trying to stop fishing

[coyoteslayer]

The Obama administration will accept no more public input for a federal strategy that could prohibit U.S. citizens from fishing the nation's oceans, coastal areas, Great Lakes, and even inland waters.

This should upset about 99% off you. People on here were so much in love with him.

OMG..... I hope I can sell all my fishing gear before the sky falls!

Yeah, you will be rolling your eyes when it happens and it will.

People need to wake up a little.

Your Republican dominated state legislature beat him to it. HB 141 passed out of the Senate today with only 3 R's voting against it but every one of the D's voted to protect your right to fish your waters.
Not to worry, an R will sign it into law.

Let's get the facts before we start to cry that the sky is falling.
The info that I have read doesn't say anything about sport fishing, just a protection of Tuna.

We all love to hate politics but let's get it right before we get too upset.

The other thing is that the public comment period was actually EXTENDED. But it does need to close at some point.

Agreed, but the reduction of fishing places in UT is for real. I watched it happen with my own 2 eyes this morning.

That had nothing to do with the Obama admin, or this report on water use issues in the Great Lakes and EVERYTHING to do with the Utah legislature. As was mentioned, it was the democrats that were standing up for fishermen on this one. All that said, I am of the opinon that this bill falls short and will be overturned, as it does not address the constitutional (state) issues that led to the court decision.
