I certainly can't be there, but would love to hear a synopsis of some of these topics. Sounds very interesting.

Skip Smith · 03-12-2008, 09:54 AM

We heard the fishing has been very slow, so we will go ahead with the meeting.

We will try and post a summary of the meeting, asap.

We will also be discussing the changing of the guard at NMFS and how these changes will affect the commercial and recreational Sword fisheries.

From what were hearing, it does not look too good for the recreational fisherman.

Ron & Vinnie wil be there to discuss this.

Ron & Vinnie... Discuss? That must be a strange meaning of that word in which I was not previously aware.

Cage match might be a better description.
