An
encouraging turnout today at Tutukaka for the Northland launch of LegaSea. Interested people from Houhora to
Mangawhai. Plenty of new faces. About 70-80 people all up. Great to see the President
of the Sport Fishing Council Mark Conner, from Ashley in Canterbury.
The
question has been asked about number of supporters to date. The answer as of last week was about
500. The maths is not as simple as you
think, as there are family members and donations, so we can’t just divide a
number by $20 or use the number of names on the data base.
Today at
Tuts we signed up another 25 people with more saying they sign up on line. www.LegaSea.co.nz.
We sold
about $1500 in shirts, hats and decals. It seems that people will wear the logo
with pride. And big ups to the Warkworth Gamefishing Club who donated
$500.
For those
that are receptive, the message is getting through. A little bit contributed by a lot of people makes
a big difference. A quarterly report on fisheries management engagement is on
its way.
