Just got home from the DC trip. Must say i was greatly impressed by the fisherman Sport/Comercial/ and Pary- Charter who came together.
Our Brothers and sisters came from Alaska to Maine from California to Florida from The Carolina's to Mass. A great crowd.
While we heard from many Senators and Representatives that told us they support us WE CAN NOT STOP THE PRESSURE.
Call, write or email your Senator and Congressmen to support S1255 and H1584.
They know we mean business and we have to keep it up.

What a great day. Finally got a chance to put a few faces with some names and made some new friends. Thanks to all that worked so hard to put it all together. The rally rocked and 3 hours just flew bye with all the great speakers.Even the bus ride was a good time.If you missed it you missed something special.This rally really showed me the importance of joining and supporting groups (rfa,ssfff,unitedboatmen just to name a few) that fight for our best interest.Thanks for the hookup IrishAyes,my bud could not of been happier. Thanks Rod for showing me I can do more things with my Iphone than make phone calls ;D

Yea. where is Paul 5hrug

Sorry guys for posting late but I had some things to do this morning and last night was a real bummer...The bus driver got lost coming home and it took 5 hours needless to say we left DC and arrived back at Grumpys at 8:30.
Oh well that's life.
The United We Fish rally was great and the turnout was fantastic. The speakers were a little long but I hope we got our position across as a lot of work went into setting this up and it went off beautifully. My hat goes off the the organizers and especially all those that took off to rally in the birth place of Democracy.
I have a lot of pictures so I will try and post enough so you get the feel of the day.
Remember to click on the pictures to view a larger picture.

I hope you enjoy the pictures and the effort put out by the different organizations that put this together. We all have to do our part and begin now to contact your representatives and let them know how you feel.
Happy Catching

Anytime Matt. Sorry they were late. It was a good day to be in DC. Boy I miss working down there, great city.
-
Nice job Paul! t^ Any chance you can index them so those that couldn't make it know who they're looking at?
-
Not at this time as that was not my job...Maybe TB can fill us in on some of the speakers.
It is kind of hard to take pictures and try and write names as they were going by quite fast.
