DATE CHANGE from July 8th to
July 15th at the LHP yacht club.
The HOT topic will the July 28 NMFS meeting and how it might affect you. There is talk of a "General Category Permit" that would enable the recreational fishermen to buy a permit to sell their fish, which will probably cause a ruckus from the local commercial Sword boats (day or buoy) that bought a commercial license. The other problems are that by enabling this category the NMFS could even shut us down with closures.
Also Captain Tony DiGiulian will discuss his Swordfish adventures over in the waters of Saudi Arabia.
