Federation Meeting with Fisheries Board Sub Committee for new Sport/Recreational

[Bin_Gaffer]

Please note that NOT all people that have a boat and enjoy fishing are subscribed or joined to a club or forum. If I haven't been a member of MMF i wouldn't have been aware of whats going on with regards to fishing equipment used ect ..

What i suggest is make this topic public through media (news,il-lostra,Xarabank,...ect and other programs which are highly viewed by the public), so anyone involved will be aware of whats going on. Thus impacting the whole sector not only fisherman. having said that, how many of you in this forum are ; owners of fishing equipment outlets, mechanics ect...

one that has a boat that is used for pleasure and goes fishing once in a while he will still be impacted by the restrictions being made.

I've read most of the comments and apart from all the members only a couple have commented on this topic, some of you have decided to talk to the MLP, PN and AD leaders which is a good idea but should be as a last resort.

1.Make the public aware of whats going on and not meeting behind closed doors and with only one representative.
2.have someone report everything to the media on what the meetings are about in detail. Documents ect.

Thank god its a Trojan

I think this topic is open to members only... Would it not be better to open to all

I think this topic should be closed.No one gives a damn of what is going to happen,so we might as well call it a day.Btw,i just learned that these meetings are just a cover-up of something much bigger and atrocious to our hobby.

Just like many sites we do not allow guests to post. It causes too many problems.

it takes 2 minutes to sign up and being able to post.

Skip, Guess you are right. Can it be set so that ppl can at least read what is happening?
Emic, me too.

I've been following this thread from the beginning but decided not the write because the heads were too hot at first.

As said before it does smell faul that these meetings are taking place now (in respect of the coming election) but unless the new regulations will be rushed out rapidly we cannot say anything yet. We have been hearing about new fishing regulations too long and its about time that the current regulations are updated.
I have faith that Gogo will be doing his best to protect the recreational fishermen but I am sure that some new regulations will not be to my liking. However if these are made properly we would all benefit in the long run.

The most important thing is that once the regulations are drafted we get to discuss them before they are implemented. And if some are unjustified we all get together and protest publicly if necessary.
