We as fishermen seem to worry about roe I should use today.Or what size a hook is good.But when it comes down to making a stand and Fighting for our Rights.We always seem to let the other guy do the job.The Liberal goverment of B.C.are suppose to meet on this Wed with the natives to see if they can get something started in regards to the treaty process.If this takes place and it goes through we as fishermen may as well throw our fishing gear in the garbage.Every one read Bill Otway,s letter it,s posted on the Conservation forum.We all need to band together and fight for our rights.Call your M.L.A. or M.P. and tell him or her you have been pushed around enough.Remember the more we bitch the better they will listen.Its time to make a stand and tell them we wont be pushed around.Like we have before.

I've had enough of the native bullshit that's gone on the last few years, and it has gotten worse and worse every year. They're slowly taking over the fishery, and it's bullshit. It's all being sold, only a small fraction is being used for consumption, it's b.s. all fishermen need to come together protest this crap that is taking place.

Hey Guys, First of all, there is no such thing as too late for anything you truely care about.If one of your children was sick, you would go to the edge of the earth to give them health, just as we all should be giving to the sport that keeps us living.If we couldn't fish/hunt anymore, what would all of us diehards do? The old saying " squeaky wheel gets the grease", well it's our time to squeak and loud we shall.If we are going to beat these hypocritical bastards,then we should be getting together for a meeting to get all of us pointed in the same direction.As I have learned from a very wise friend,Ken Kristian,you cannot go off half cocked with anything you write.You have to explain to the government that we are tired of what is going on.Without the thousands of fishermen in this great province they will lose millions of dollars worth of revenue,plus the biggest issue,OUR VOTES.Without a doubt,their biggest fear is to look like a bunch of high paid idiots down the road,and out of a cushy job.Again, without our support they have nothing and we need to let those bureaucratic pencil pushers know where we stand. United we stand. Brett Pott

Thank's for speaking out Brett.You are right when you said it's not to late.I just wish more people would get off the couch and do some thing.On Sunday morning I fired a letter of to Gordon Campbell.I don't know if it will make any kind of difference. But thats who I chose to bitch at.I figured I would go right to the top.Thank's again to you all who want to make a difference.Gerry.
