Tunnel vision... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

As promised I will be nice and keep my views to myself....with bitten tongue
But I will say this…

Hooray for your efforts to keep your business afloat...oh and as well as keeping the fishery from becoming a seal hang out. As so many often do...stay on the sidelines and watch.

“For those who think this post was written with some ego-fueled, pumping up business agenda...think again. I would gladly donate my business in exchange for everyone being able to enjoy La Jolla for years to come”. It is done to show your efforts to those who are not able to or not wanting to chase the “Ghost”

Keeping these "secret" fisheries sacred and for the glory of a few, is the battle...well it’s too late! As all popular things go...they become exploited by those who find out where the fish are.

Remember the Gill Netting fishing fleets? They are gone. Remember the Abalone fisheries? They are gone… From Hugh McCormick Smith, John Nathan Cobb and many others before us have tried and died in their efforts. Mr. Cobb was an uneducated Pacific Fisherman who knew the value to theses fisheries and dedicated his life to it. Cobb developed health problems and suffered a heart attack in autumn 1929. He died in La Jolla, California, in January 1930. Cobb's efforts helped establish the foundations of fisheries education at the University of Washingtonlace>.

So I ask everyone…what have you done today? For your fisheries of tomorrow?>>

· I sent my letters
· Sent my faxes
· Asked all my buddies to participate in this very important issue
· And sent a few dollars

Reason for all this, so my kids can experience the same as all of us!
