Gentlemen,
One of your members asked if I would come over to your sight and give a brief summary about the Save the Summer Flounder fishery Fund. I appreciate the opportunity and after reading some of the post, I see you already are supportive of the group. SSFFF is made up from everyone involved in fishing. Party, Charter, commercial, Bait and Tackle shops, Manufacturers and Recreational fishermen. We all share a common goal, that is to save the Summer Flounder Fishery...not the fish, as they are not in trouble!! The ASMF represntative from Virginia at the meeting the other day made it clear that the fluke bio-mass has gone up 6 fold in the past few years. It's the law that is the problem. In brief the ASMF hands are tied because of wording in the Magnuson act. Our goal is to change the wording and add flexability, which will achieve the goals set by NMFS and not put people out of business...The Enviro's who want to stop fishing all together, want the wording to be No-Flexability, Regardless of the Economic Impact!!! Meaning Screw us and everyone who loves to fish. They even want a moratorium for 10 years from 2009!! This after the stocks have rebounded so well. This is just a brief outline, I certainly could talk forever, but the blood pressure has reached it's peak for the day. Please visit www.ssfff.net everything you need to know, news articles, where we stand, who supports us is there. Rememeber, these are the same clowns that want to end Hunting and take away our guns!!! They tried that here in Jersey and look what happened to KARCHER!!! Thanks for your time and support. If you do support us as a group, that would be even better...there is strength in numbers. Capt. Ron Santee/Fishermen/SSFFF member |

| This group will hire new scientists to study the stocks. Its the only avenue we have to prevent a shut down of the fishery altogether in 2009. | ||

No scientist needed, open your eyes and lay abeam to the real problem? The scallopers are continually muggin the door mats I been told by a deck hand that even he felt it is a crime because he likes to fish for the fluke in the summer also. The bycatch I don't think is ever really properly factored into the mix?

Wonder what it cost to get that reported that way? I also herd that the rocks that snag in their gear they been selling to landscapers also. It's all money aside from breakdowns that are usally extensive so I cann't begrudge then for a living.

The Trenton Times reported that the commercial fluke boats reached their quota in only 17 hours this month.
This is another example of how flawed the so called "science" is. We need to continue to fight and contribute to SSFFF. __________________ I’m a Republican because everyone can’t be on welfare.
