Here's an excerpt from the newsletter:

"Another bill of interest that was introduced this week would seek to prohibit the use of lead in the aquatic environment. This bill, HB 2241 would create havoc for fisherman that use the smaller size lead weights. The bill would prohibit the sale of one ounce or one inch or less sinkers and lead weighted fish hooks of one ounce or one inch or less effective Jan 1, 2014. A hearing has been scheduled on this bill for Wednesday in the House Environment Committee. You might want to check this one out!!!"

I'm glad to hear that the WACPAC is on this latest attempt by the misguided "loon lovers" to impose useless, costly regulations upon an industry that is struggling along with the rest of our sluggish economy!

Thanks for your efforts on this one Salmonhawk! thumbup
