Love the comment from the Florida angler at the bottom of her article/post. Said perfectly.
"Kelly,
We (sport fishermen in Florida) will fight with every ounce of our ability to keep any more MPAs out of Florida waters. Fish populations in Florida haven't been this good in 50 years. We outlawed most commercial fishing and have very stringent limitations on the number and size of fish that are allowed to be kept. These changes have been more than adequate. MPAs are unnecessary and militant. There ultimate purpose is to outlaw fishing altogether. Keep your crazy California crap out there. I support organizations like CCA that help to protect our fishing rights and as Florida's sport fishing industry creates Billions of dollars for our economy we will have the power to fight these refuges. SAY NO TO MPAs."
