(Report by Jim)
If you were not aware, there is a struggle going on in the Michigan Legislature regarding commercial fishing rights on Lake Michigan. It could possibly mean the end of commercial fishing in Leland. Please read about the current situation and do what you can to pressure your representatives to do the right thing for the remaining family-owned and struggling commercial fisheries in the state.

Jim. I just thought : I did not intend to imply that you were doing the politicking.
I meant the law makers.

More politicking.
Will the changes be applicable to the other bordering states?
