Well Skeets, that's a good suggestion.
I live in Costa Mesa, Ca. I think I live in one of the greatest places in the world. I'm super healthy and have a great job and I attribute that to
this area.
But at the same time I really don't like it here because of the volumn of people.
To me this area is already ruined. What can I really do? 1 man crushed by millions. I spend alot of my time hiding like a mouse in a hole. All I
really want to do is escape like you did to my own Rancho Sunrisa.
But Baja is a different story. It's not overrun with people yet. And there is a chance to make a difference and do it right this time.
Is that so hard for you to understand. I don't believe the local natives have the right to destroy the place anymore than the devolopers from Newport
Beach do. Baja belongs to everyone who loves it in it's natural state. That natural state needs to be preserved and protected. And that includes each
and every creature including rattle snakes.
Sure we can harvest some fish but it must be done carefully and in a sustainable manner. Error to the safe side.
Otherwise all your local native fishing buddies will end up as rock farmers or waiters. If they're lucky.

I have a hunch that EVERYBODY on this board would like to see things done in a much more environmentally friendly way.
End of story, it seems to me. |
Barry, you are on the wrong thread. This is the "illegal netting" thread, not the "Greenpeace/Puerto Los Cabos" thread.
End of story.

Thanks, Don-----but I realize that. The "Puerto" thread disappeared, so I thought that this was a semi-related thread, with many of the same
participants, so thought I would just chime in.
I still think that basically we all really agree on most of the Baja related Environmental issues, but that the methods used to make the public aware
are what is questioned.
Also, the issue of local folks thinking that they are above the law to the detriment of everybody (everything?) else---------I have a real problem
with that concept, even tho they may not understand what they are doing.
Thanks for your response, and trying to keep me out of trouble----I appreciate that.

sharks
in oregon all the while the people who should know whats going on with the fish (fish and game) were blaming the local harvest they turned there
heads the other way as factory ships off shore gobbelled up all the fish everyone from the loggers to the fisherman were blamed as the politics sold
out to the highs bidders the greenys joined right in with their hands out to save us all from ourselves and in truth became part of the problem
then the spotted owl the greeny used to fill there coffers with donations the whole thing was trumped up only to stop logging so the city dwellers
would donate more bucks theres no danger to the spotted owl they live in barns and second growth
so now the state doesnt get much timber taxes for there schools and the greenys march on to another made up cause feeding on the ignorent

IMHO
Fish & Game has their head up their____. They have never got it right except for maybe some salmon restoration projects which probably ruined the
gene pool. Silting-in of bays and estuaries from decades of bad runoff practices by timber companies took it's toll years ago. Salmon are affected by
many different aspects of the environment in their long distance spawn cycle. I would offer that mistakes made have been fodder for the timber cos and
the F&G Certain elements have been addressed particularily in stream enhancement and shade buffers. WE can learn how to manage stuff but the
bueracracy comes first I fear. So I feel a bit of personal responsibility to acknowledge Bajas diversity and precious features and fragile areas. Why
wouldn't I kill and keep a delicious shark. Why should I not feel passionate about giving a damn. Because I want it to last, pray tell.

Dennis: While you are resting: Look up and tell me about the Deer Debackle. The Aramdillo Debackle:
O yes , Protect the Deer from the Hunters. Save the Deer!!
There were 43 Deer in my front yard yesterday, some very small, from lack of Proper Breeding due to their Protection!
Dennis:
Who are you trying to SAVE everything For???
Why Future Generations???
It seems to me that the Do Gooders are trying to act Like God with no idea of Faith Hope and Charity.
Why not work on the People? They are the ones that will grow up to take care of themselves. Good , Bad , or Indeffrent!

That's another good one, Skeet -----
You can't legislate morality but it's OK to legislate mortality.
What do you think, Skeet? Isn't legislating mortality a moral issue?
Just curious ------- Why don't you put up a fence? Or, just go out there and bludgeon Bambi with an ax handle if things like that don't bother you.

OK Jerry, you're right. I hadn't realized the difference between "show by example" and "teach" but, there it is. Plain as day.
See Jerry? Now you're the teacher. Thanks.

What ho!
That'd be him.
My friend George was a neighbor, and a piece of his found its way to me.
Wish i still had it.
Always dug the sentiment of the tagline.
Thanks for the link.
And Duncan Hunter is not welcome at my camp fire.

If Duncan Hunter had any idea how deadly fishing nets are, he would have them strung the length of the US/MEX border.

If the illegal net situation isn't brought under control the inshore fisheries will be wiped out with the exception of some reef fish. Then they'll
move offshore.
