Brian Sloss Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 This could make access to many rivers difficult to impossible. wade fishing or going on gravel bars could be trespassing. Here is a link to this gem http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.house.mo.gov%2Fbilltracking%2Fbills151%2Fbillpdf%2Fintro%2FHB0955I.PDF&h=sAQF4Gz67&s=1 Smallieguy87 1 www.elevenpointflyfishing.com www.elevenpointcottages.com (417)270-2497
Smallieguy87 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Already put in an email and a call to my district rep about this as well as emails to our senators. As i said in another forum thread, this sounds like the personal interests of a small group of people and will in no way benefit the huge majority of people who enjoy Missouri's waterways and resources in general.
fishinwrench Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 That reads like chinese algebra. How can you even know what it means for real?
grizwilson Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 Contacted my State Rep. Think he already has me on ignore. Here is a link to look up your rep, and oppose HB 955 the hearing is to be Monday March 9, 2015 in Jefferson City. http://www.senate.mo.gov/LegisLookup/default.aspx g “If a cluttered desk is a sign, of a cluttered mind, of what then, is an empty desk a sign?”- Albert Einstein
ScottK Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Just received a reply to my email from my rep. (First time I have contacted my representative for anything). At least he responded, we'll see what happens but hopefully they're getting a ton of input on this.
Brian Sloss Posted March 9, 2015 Author Posted March 9, 2015 and your rep said what?... www.elevenpointflyfishing.com www.elevenpointcottages.com (417)270-2497
ScottK Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 That he would look at the legislation and "reach out" to the sponsor of the bill (Ross) and see if he could address my concerns.... We'll see.
Mark Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Sent email to my rep as well, along with encouraging my fishing friends to do so as well. Guessing this may have something to do with the fatal shooting on the Meramec last year. Chief Grey Bear 1
rFisherk Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 I'm glad you posted about this here, Brian. I posted about it in Smallmouth Talk, and it has four of five pages of replies so far. Thought about putting it here, but I've been sort of dominating the Conservation Issues forum and figured the smallmouth guys would jump all over it. Worked out for the best, because now it is in both places. Thanks.
fishbait3 Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Contacted my Rep and havent heard anything back from her
