Finally Defeated. Fish On!!!

Finally HB187 has been voted down for the second time. No thanks to my representative (Last), but regardless, its smashed. Remember to keep things positive; respect landowners, stay in water, pick up trash and tell the representatives thanks that voted "no." So until next year fish anywhere you'd like and keep a copy of the ruling in your fishing vest, so you can avoid getting buckshot in your ass. Fish On!!!

Thanks for nothing Rep Last, no emails, no opinion and definitely wrong vote. I'll have to straighten him out next time I see him.
