LJ is not safe on the MLPA maps. At this time next year we may be talking about having the Moyer Memorial tournament in the bay
.
North LJ is still up for debate on 2 of the 3 maps right now. We could lose access to all the kelp, and most of the canyon edge.
One of the maps is even targeting the Scripps pier area and canyon edge. No more making bait in the dark, and forget about all the good halibut and yt spots there.
We need guys to show up and speak September 10th at 9am. If you don't want to speak, there will be a couple people that can use your time in a very effective manner.
Please read the MLPA thread. Get your head out of the sand, out of your ass, or where ever it is stuck and help us with this. Attending rallies on weekends for fishing is great, attending the benefit tournament was awesome, donating money is commendable, but to actually get things done you have to show up to these meetings.
The stakeholders last meeting is September 10th.
The Blue Ribbon Task Force meets October 20-22 to decide on the recommended proposal. Public comment time is still tbd.
The DFG commission meets on December 10th to decide the final closure map.
Wake up people. It really is almost over.
