I received this email and want to pass it on to all of my boating friends. Please follow the link below to easily take action! Thanks.....
"It was but a few years ago I came to this community an
asked for your help getting Darrell Ticehurst appointed to the PFMC. You brought it home then, and we all know the excellent fruit that produced. Now we need your help again.
Dan Wolford has made the short list for the seat on the PFMC being vacated by Roger Thomas, who has long been a voice for our recreational community on the Council. The Governor submitted only 3 of the 6 original candidates to the Federal level. Dan and two commercial fishermen have made the final cut. So if we are to maintain a recreational presence on the Council, Dan is the only acceptable candidate. This position is one of only 14 voting seats that control the federally managed fisheries on the West Coast. I can't tell you how important it is that this seat continues to speak for recreational fishermen.
So once again, I'm asking you to utilize this link provided by ASA to send this pre-written letter of support for Dan. It will take all of about 60 seconds.

If you are so inclined, it would be great to also write a personal note. If you do, it should be sent to:
Dr. William T. Hogarth
Director, National Marine Fisheries Service
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
1315 East West Highway
Silver Spring, MD 20910
Or to his e-mail at bill.hogarth**noaa.gov
I am also asking that you post or carry this request to other boards where permitted. Dan is being supported by nearly all of the major recreational political organizations, but it's important that Washington DC hears from all the recreational clubs in California.
This is huge so please take the time.
Respectfully
Bob Franko"
