Obama Bans Grouper & Snapper Fishing

Post by MudDucker »

This morning after his usual game of hoops, the President signed an emergency executive order banning all non-commercial fishing for all species of snapper and grouper in federal waters until a final population determination could be made either later in 2010 or early in 2011.

good thing Scoop said something, I had my phone in hand starting to make phone calls!!!!
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn. ~Chuck Clark
