On the topic of who they are targeting - they explained it pretty well that habitat or closures alone do not fix fisheries. Fish need a rest to recover.. That's where we need to do our part as anglers.
As for other regulators that have a hand in the game, sure they need to be aware of our concerns, however sending emails to AEP for transportation, agriculture & forestry related issues is just going to take the biologists trying to fix our fisheries off the file to respond to emails. Email the right people..
Reading the form letter above it actually sounds like you don't support recovery - is that the message you want to send? Its not the message I would send...

That’s where we beg to differ, it’s actually a very simple formula to make it better, improve the habitat and make it C&R, it’s literally worked everywhere else so why are these rivers different?
