What’s fishing like in Costa Rica this time of year? Mike, give us your life story, how did you wind up doing what you’re doing? Tell us about your art – what kinds of things are you doing? You’re getting a lot of press, tell us about that. Your blog lets people see what you’re up to day-by-day, and it’s an interesting look into the life of an artist. Has it changed the way you are doing what you’re doing? What other artists do you like to look at? Do you influence one another? Have any future fishing exploits up your sleeve?

No one in the fishing industry is making such an accusation. But they are pointing out some facts that certainly could lead a suspicious mind in that direction: As of Monday afternoon, Oct. 19, the web site for the Interagency Ocean Policy Task Force Interagency Ocean Policy Task Force has yet to post the dates for the final public meeting, set for the Great Lakes area. Yet an internal memo for task force members, dated Oct. 14 and coded "not for public distribution," says the meeting will occur Oct. 29-30 in Cleveland. Whether intentional or accidental, a delay in public posting of this information certainly could prevent activist anglers from having adequate time to plan on attending. And activist anglers have been busy lately, expressing their displeasure that the task force gave no consideration to the value of recreational angling in its Interim Report, released in mid-September. That report is the first major step for establishing a federal strategy for managing the nation's oceans, coastal waters, and Great Lakes, MauroMedia no 55:15
