A Big Thank You - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Big thanks to all the kids that showed up, spoke well, and stated their case for 2 and why...

Noah, Otto, Isabella, Marina, Clay, and another Clay...

Great job to all of you,

It was tremendous seeing "our" kids speak up for LJ and why it is so precious to them while the bus'd in kids had no input for why they wanted 3...you kids knocked it out of the park.

To all of you, a BIG Thank you...you made an impact.

Yes thank you all who spoke and also thanks you everyone who ceded time to my wife and I. I really appreciate you trusting us to give us a bit more time to get our points across

. That is why it was so important to have so many people show, speaking or not. We showed in numbers without bus-loading kids in and giving them extra credit. On that note the kids who spoke about fishing on side of map 2 genuinely cared!

. We can now just hope for the best.

Glad my tax dollars were at work busing in those school kids.

Thanks Tyler. You did a great job on the buoys, North Scripps Pier and the dipnet issue.

A WORLD of Thank You to everyone at every level for all your efforts.
All the heavy hitters should automatically be entered into the Yak Fishing Hall of Fame for their selfless devotion to save our way of life.

I've been doing what I can since about '03 when I heard Paul Lebowitz talk about the reality of the MLPA.
I feel plain lousy that I could not make 10/21.
My boy has had some health problems the last two years, the last two months he's had some serious complications, so my world is a little upside down right now. All this Greenwashing BS is not helping my current state of mind.
Thank you again from me and my little buddy.
