ADVERTISE HERE

Fort Walton Beach Florida

More than 100 fishermen showed up at US 98 and Perry Ave to ptotest closing of amberjack fishing by NMFS. they picked that corner because that is where panhandlers congregate. they felt they would all be out of business and homeless if NMFS continues to close fisheries.
Many say that business is the worst it's been in years.

The fishermen are planning a flotilla “Rally for Recreational Anglers” this Saturday in Destin harbor beginning at 10 a.m., also in protest.
