		<description><![CDATA[We like the Bonefish Tarpon Trust because they have a cool sounding URL &#8211; tarbone.org &#8211; and because everything they do is driven by scientific research, and the desire to keep doing it. So when Aaron Adams dropped a note about supporting the org&#8217;s new membership drive, I&#8217;m all in. They are now offering associate membership for $50 contributions. As Dr. Adams wrote: &#8220;As always, the funds go to support BTT&#8217;s research, conservation, and education. We are having monthly give-aways of gear (this month it&#8217;s Howler Brothers), next month Cheeky, then Orvis,&#8230;. But best of all, the final drawing at the end of the year is a trip to Ascension Bay.  And for people who join and renew at $100 of higher, there is&#8230;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=6295&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The fishing has been sucking. Here&#8217;s a chance where we can all actually do something about it. Rather than mince words, I&#8217;ll paste them directly from a mailing by the Chesapeake Bay Foundation: In a matter of days, the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC) will meet to discuss the fate of menhaden (AKA the most important fish in the sea). At the end of that meeting, it will adopt an addendum to its menhaden management plan, which will determine new overfishing thresholds and target fishing rates. Now, more than ever, we need your help. In 32 of the past 54 years, we have overfished menhaden, and its population now stands at its lowest point on record—a mere 8 percent of what it once was!&#8230;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=6139&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The striped bass of the Chesapeake, and therefore the Eastern Seaboard, got a dose of good news this week with a big spike in the Young of the Year numbers. I spoke briefly with my friend John Page Williams of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation about it, and he said it has everything to do with ideal weather conditions during spawn and early life stage. Of course, the best news for the striped bass in the long run could come out of the ASMFC meeting in Boston in two weeks. Williams and his friends in the CCA and other conservation groups have been working hard to ensure that the result comes down in favor of protecting the bass. &#8220;It looks to be a landmark vote,&#8221;&#8230;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=6105&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A sobering essay on disappearing migratory fish from the Yale E360 environmental journal. The author, who wrote Heartbeats in the Muck, makes a point that applies everywhere: Mitigation for the loss of wild runs of these fishes was most often in the form of the easy but nearly always ineffective — if not downright destructive — stocking of hatchery-reared specimens.
