State telemeeting about California fishing ban erupts into chaos. ‘Make fishing great again!’
Sacramento Bee ^ | April 9, 2020 | Ryan Sabalow

The California Fish and Game Commission abruptly canceled a teleconference Thursday morning amid cries of “make fishing great again!” and “fascists!” before it could consider authorizing a limited ban on sportfishing in some areas.

Earlier this week, a group of conservative politicians, sheriffs and media outlets told their followers that Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration was planning to outright cancel the fishing season statewide because of COVID-19.

My friend who recently retired was just commenting this morning about hitting some of our favorite fishing spots. I warned him that our great governor may ban fishing this year.(Nevada)

Nevada used to be a “wide open” state, didn’t it?

I mean, not everything went, but you didn’t have to look over your shoulder for big brother every ten minutes, right?

So easy for states, including mine, to slouch toward tyranny.

Enraged Trump-voting fishermen: "You can't do this!!"

Gavin Newsom: "Hold my beer:"

Gavin Newsom declares California a 'Nation-State'

Good. He can take back Kamala Harris, Diane Feinstein, and Nancy Pelosi, along with all the other communists in Congress. Once we do an emergency congressional redistricting and put more congressmen and women in red states, we can invite Devin Nunes to run in one of the new districts, decidedly red.

If he goes ahead with the ban, the governor’s pollock numbers will flounder.

"Nevada used to be a “wide open” state, didn’t it?"

It sure was! Really started going downhill when Harry Reid started acquiring power and influence.

I read the source as “Babylon Bee”.

And it all still made sense.

That article is absurd. It reads like a campaign flier from Bernie Bro’s.

I’m at work and just received a voicemail about a telemeeting tonight for my county. Wish I could participate.
I’d love to ask, “Since the county sheriff’s office is closed, will constitutional carry be statewide?”

Got out on the Gunnison (Colorado) today, got a few on RS-2 emergers fished dry. Never got within 200 feet of a human.

Opening day of the General Trout Fishing season here where I live in the Eastern Sierra of California is huge. Thousands of fishermen and tourists come here to catch the big one. It is normally the last Saturday of April. The economy of the entire area is supported by the Trout fishing season April to November.

I remember Nevada where if you shot someone dead on your property, all you had to prove was that he was trespassing. It was not that long ago either. None of this “it was only stuff” or “only if he is in your house”. If a person jumped into your car in the driveway and was pulling away, you could use the same force a cop could.

Nothing is open for the LA Folks. 395 from Lone Pine to the Nevada Border is a ghost town. Inyo, Mono and Alpine Counties don’t want no folks and there will be no fish stocked.
