According to Jim Donofrio, Executive Director of the Recreational Fishing Alliance (RFA), organizations representing recreational and commercial fishers will stage a “United We Fish” march on the U.S. Capitol on February 24, 2010, to protest new bans on fishing for red snapper, grouper, amberjack, sea bass, and other saltwater fishes.

To participate or become involved, go to the RFA website and sign up for […]
