Capt. Kirk was out doing some OSR, so Capt. Kevin and Jeff welcomed in Harley from CSS Fireplaces and Outdoor Living, along with some heavy hitters for a special episode of the show.
The headline story, as you know, was the blocking of snapper season by a federal judge…THE DAY BEFORE THE SEASON BEGAN. Yeah, we know. Here’s the thing: it’s complicated, so the boys brought in Brett Hastings, attorney extraordinaire, to explain a bit of it in a way we can all understand. This is a MUST-LISTEN for anyone who fishes our waters or benefits from recreational fishing in any way – which is all of us.
But this story goes beyond the legal aspects, so the boys brought in Dr. Darin Willingham to talk about it, too. He talked about the fisheries and the effects of the injunction on local recreational anglers as well as the economic impact on the community.
Of course, we’re all trying to figure out what to do next. Unfortunately, it’s time to wait for all the other parties to move forward. In the meantime, it doesn’t hurt to reach out to your local representative, state senators and the governor’s office to keep this a priority for them.
If you need to consult an attorney, Brett is your man! Visit his firm’s website, HastingsInjuryLaw.com, to learn more about what Brett and his team can do for you.
