Waters that have historically been open to public use are increasingly being gated off, making it more difficult of access productive fishing waters. It’s time to stand up and fight to protect our right to recreationally fish canals connected to public navigable waters. Only when our political representatives hear from us and understand the vast economic impact our sport has on the state treasury will they listen. So you’re help is needed. Just sign this petition asking for legislation to address this problem, and be ready to make calls and send emails as we organize to fight the closing of vast areas of our fisheries.
