I represented the Texas BASS Federation Nation today during Gov Perry's kick off press conference announcing the TPWD public awareness campaign "Hello Giant Salvinia, Goodbye Fishin Hole" We are a key partner in this campaign. All anglers need to listen to this message and prevent the spread of Giant Salvinia. Listen to Gov. Perry's comments about how important fishing is to the state at about the 4:40 minute mark. He gets it!

It damn sure is. Most eveyone on this Forum has spent the better part of their lives, especially their younger years, in the outdoors. Whether it's hunting or fishing, we've all grown up doing it and it's as much a part of our lives as Church, Family, and Beer!

Some folks differ with Gov Perry on some issues but he has always been a strong supporter of hunting and fishing.

I've not been a big fan of Perry, but you are correct, he gets it when it comes to the outdoors and how we use em.

I don't know what kinda crapp obama is going to come up with next but I do feel a little better knowing we live in a state where at least some of our leaders beleive the same way I do...Peery may not do everything to my standards but I think we have the same beliefs...we also have the two Bushes living here also...
