“The grant dollars — all generated by sportfishermen and boaters — are already allocated to conservation, and cannot be used to offset the national debt” www.outdoorlife.com/conservation...

Submissions for #WCBR2026 open today! Please go to www.winterbrain.org Big Sky is my absolute favorite venue for this meeting. The science is top notch, the people are great, the meaning is inclusive, and I learned to ski as a 35 year old! Please repost!
