So why is the JCAA taking this position?
I can't help but wonder what or who is behind them influencing their official statements, because to most fishermen I know who fish the majority of fishing days during the season, what the JCAA is claiming just makes no sense.
The way politics works dark, is that when you see a group that sways a certain way, you can be assured they do that because they have been promised something. Color me suspicious but that is what I think.
