Defending Our Freedom To Fish Across America

6/13/2012

4 Comments

 
I will be traveling the Country this year giving speeches, doing interviews, and talking with anyone who will listen about America's fisheries. My wife and I recently returned from a trip to California where fishermen told me stories that sounded very similar to what we are facing on the east coast. The fishery bureaucrats are attacking one small group of fishermen at a time while denying consumers access to American seafood. We need to unite our efforts and get consumers to support a responsible harvest of this great Nation's seafood by independent fishermen. 

Here is a summary of what my wife and I were blessed to see on the trip cross country. 

We saw colorful century old fishing boats with seasoned crews of old salts along coastal California. We saw Sea Lions and Elephant Seals sunning on rocky beaches with patches of sea fog obscuring the bright blue sky. We saw the results of last year's tsunami that unleashed its awesome power on Crescent City. We saw velvet antlered Elk grazing among the majestic Redwoods. We saw winding mountain roads with dark lightning storms in the distance as the setting sun lit up the landscape with brilliant light. We saw California mountain summits covered with freshly fallen snow in June. We saw the salt flats in Nevada where an ancient ocean once flooded the barren landscape. We saw graceful Antelope in Wyoming with their young fawns. We saw fertile fields of grain and corn through the heartland of Nebraska, Iowa, and Kansas. We saw the mighty Mississippi River rushing south as we traveled east. We saw the lush Appalachian Mountians rise from flat lands to peaks with every hue of green blending seamlessly. We finally arrived on the east coast at Baltimore Harbor where Francis Scott Key wrote our beautiful National Anthem as he watched Old Glory flying high over Fort McHenry during the war of 1812. God Bless America.  

Here are a few links to songs that our trip reminded me of.
Louis Armstrong  What A Wonderful World  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5TwT69i1lU 
America, the Beautiful  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LINsNCaxZ5U
Star Spangled Banner Whitney Houston  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wupsPg5H6aE

Please sign this petition asking Congress not to ratify the UN's Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST).

Just heard you on the Neal Boortz show discussing the ridiculous over-regulation they're pushing on fishermen like yourself... Government is pushing further and further in to each and every one of our lives with the blessing of this current administration powering them that it is disgusting. I will keep fishermen like yourself in my prayers. God Bless.
