This whole issue is very depressing and important and transcends the unfortunate citation. If members here, or the club itself take action challenging this issue I suggest they/we attempt to enlist support from Fletcher's as well, because it is an iconic, longtime DC business enterprise known to thousands of anglers--including some on Capitol Hill. I am doubly concerned because the rules have not seemed crystal clear and because safety issues are (broadly) legitimate. I agree with the postings but we don't do our cause any favors by appearing to ignore them. A purely safety based approach could help make a case that sweeping regulations and enforcement of those regulations are necessary--particularly in light of recent drownings and occasional pollution issues. We might also want to weigh contacting Steve Moore (who recently moved out of the area) or Lefty or others about this. Few people relish a legal fight though. Know any sympathetic journalists?--
