You want to do something to actually accomplish something for the fisheries... then divers and hook and line guys need to stop fighting with each other and get on the same page.
Commissioner Jennings is one diver. I don't recall him ever speaking on behalf of the entire population of divers and I don't think Gregorie nominated him for the commission as some sort of diver rep.

Au contraire. I have listened and read a raft of commission documents over the past 4+ years and I don't recall David ever speaking as if he was in his position as a dive industry or community rep. He didn't hide it, but it wasn't part of every meeting by any means.

No... he wasn't labeled as "the" "dive rep" by himself or anyone else. But his agenda was quite clear in spite of the facts. He was removed by his fellow commissioners and public testimony. Nuff said.

OK guys, you've both made your point and entertained the masses enough.

Back to your corners. Please.

... and this thread has now degenerated into a fishing vs diving theme ... wherein the usual suspects just wanted to drop by and tell us all that we basically suck.

Can we please either boot them out of the thread ... since their "contribution" has nothing to do with the topic ... or just close the damn thing?

Points have been made, Opinions have been noted, and pissing has commenced.

Any further pissing and I'll just lock the thread, and we won't hesitate to ban the users where it is warranted..

In the meantime, against my perhaps better judgement I will leave it open in case there is anything to actually report that has happened.
