FIX THE MAGNUSON ACT NOW!!!!
The commercial and recreational fishing industry will gather in Washington DC on February 24, 2010, for the SAVE OUR JOBS - Fix Magnuson NOW rally. Speeches by Senators and Congressmen begin at 12:00 Noon. This blog will be updated as final plans and logistics fall into place.
This is the first time commercial and recreational fishermen and fish related businesses have joined ranks on a national issue. The goal is to improve the direction of fish management by the National Marine Fisheries Service and the Fisheries Management Councils.
Fishermen from all coastal states and the Great Lakes are invited to gather at the reserved space near the steps of the Capitol by 11:00 AM on February 24th.

I just got an email from a large corporation in the fishing industry encouraging me to go to the rally. I am glad to see larger corps falling in line and seeing that not only is it the coastal economy that is going to be affected but inland jobs also. See ya there!!!!

Capt. Butch, you are one hard working fellow, and yes the phone is ringing. When people use our products and they see they work they are surprised..... Isn't that the way it is supposed to work, you make a tool to do a certain job it does it you move on to the next problem. Thanks again for supporting us and you can count on us to stand behind you , as they say "we got your back"... Thanks again Butch ....
