re: More Menhaden Bullsh*t

You’re pretty much the worst poster here. A one trick pony who is out of tricks. I think you may be a little on the spectrum too. Keep up the division and see well it works for us all. But then that is what you may want.

You must go to many CCA revivals because you learned very good to attack a messenger when you cannot challenge the facts when it comes to defending the Texas corporation known as CCA of Louisiana.
Only one of seven fishermen actually join the CCA of Louisiana and 85% of those only joined for a chance at a prize in the STAR event.
I would never waste my time and resources trying to divide such a small population. So, and as many times before, you are wrong.
My message is clear, don't trust the CCA of Louisiana, everyone should make their own effort to personally contact their respective elected officials.

don't trust the CCA of Louisiana,
I feel this should be restated to say "I don't trust CCA of Louisiana to properly lead the effort against the Menhaden industry."
CCA and David Cresson had leverage and momentum during the October 2023 commission with a proposed NOI 1-mile coastwise buffer with 3 miles in parts of Cameron while maintaining 3-mile around the Grand Isle area. Ultimately, the original NOI was amended early 2024, and called for a 1/2-mile coast wide buffer. This was after a meeting between CCA, Daybrook and Omega to 'negotiate' a reasonable outcome.
CCA does a good job with initiatives like the STAR Tournament, regional meetings, and the REEF Louisiana program; however, they should not be perceived as leading the effort against the menhaden industry, especially as conditions surrounding the issue appear to be worsening rather than improving.

Who is leading it then?

That's a fair question to which I don't have an answer.
This matter is now heading to the House Natural Resources and Environment Committee which has a few possible outcomes.
It's my understanding that the Committe Chair determines whether to hold a hearing. If it is scheduled, LDWF officials must appear before the committee to present and answer questions. If the Chairman does not schedule it, the rule typically moves forward without a hearing.
The Committee Chair is Brett F. Geymann and Joseph A. Orgeron - Vice Chair (he's an ally for us, not the menhaden industry)
Geymann has accepted campaign contributions from Omega Protein, Orgeron has not. (according to public record)

The answer is that CCA is leading it whether some of us like it or not. Which is why I cannot understand the hate unless someone has ulterior motives.
For instance, if Willie’s group wants to come out and lead the charge, I would be fully supportive of it and not attack its members based on things that happened 30 years ago.

Motorboat, I see again you cannot tell the truth. CCA of Louisiana is a Texas group that does what is best for its top-level members. If you believe CCA is leading the Menhaden push, you should really consider how bad this organization really is since recreational fishermen or getting pounded. Maybe then you will see how much of a laughingstock this group is in the political sector.
Not really am not sure of what t"en-year ago" issue you are talking about, but that is usually what CCA blowhards do-make stuff up when they cannot defend the facts.
To answer the previously poised question of who is leading the push-the unfortunate answer right now is the Menhaden industry.

See, now this post confirms what I have suspected for some time now: You're just here to hate and put down a group that is certainly leading the charge. You have claimed to be a part of a huge organization that supports fisherman's rights, yet you cannot claim that they are willing to lead this fight or even if they are participating.
You are comforting the enemy by attacking an enemy of your enemy. But I do believe that you have some motive for attacking CCA other than you feel they lied some time ago. Are you trying to put them down because you want to lift your group up? Are you really doing this to uphold the menhaden industry? It's all very odd to turn every thread into CCA hate versus menhaden hate. If you can't see that, then I do not know what to tell you.

Right because politicians and commission members are being bought.
CCA is the only organization I see at least attempting to be the voice of opposition. For all your cloak and dagger responses about your organization, you haven't one time named who they are and how they are helping fight this fight. Kudos for the good work that they do (ramps, veterans, etc), but what does that have to do with fighting the Menhaden Industry?
As I have said in this and other threads, fighting the Menhaden coalition with the WLF commission is a losing battle. A legislative solution is the only answer. Until enough saltwater fishermen get off their asses and contact their representatives, our resources will continue to get raped. Louisiana as the "Sportsman's Paradise" is now just a joke. Our state representation has sold us out for an industry that doesn't care if a recreational fisherman gets to catch another fish.
