McKenzie River bait ban coalition underway

March 5th, 2009 · 4 Comments

First of all, thank you to the first 100 people to sign the McKenzie River Bait Ban petition. Click Here to sign the petition. It was offline a bit this afternoon when we hit the 100-respondent mark. The free software we were using to collect responses only allowed us to have 100 folks, so we upgraded the account and we’re back in business.

We also launched a new site: McKenzie Bait Ban Coalition, and published some of the comments from the petition. We’re currently recruiting business owners, guides and conservation organizations to join the coalition. If you’re intersted in having your business or guide service listed as a supporter of the McKenzie River Bait Ban, please email me.

    Just what this state needs …… another Elitist fishing spot. I use to enjoy fishing on the Metolius river until it became a fly only stream. Now you better take alot of money and drink only fine wines to fish there. DON’T screw up another river.

    The bait ban is not fly only… please read it. Also if you calling people who stop the car to clip road kill (to tie with) “the super elite” I must be Bill Gates. I hope you change your mind…
