Save your fishing and hunting rights now (http://www.greatlakesbass.com/conservation/index.php/2014/02/17/save-your-fishing-and-hunting-rights-now)
Michigan is at the center of one of the largest fights in the country over hunting rights and the future of the North American Model of Conservation. Radical animal rights groups led by the Humane Society of the United States have launched two referendums designed to undermine the use of science in determining game species in Michigan. GreatLakesBass.com and MUCC are standing up to them, though, and we need your help!
We're supporting a petition drive to pass a law called the Scientific Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act. This citizen initiative will protect hunting and fishing rights, help stop Asian carp and provide free licenses to active-duty military members. It is sponsored by the Citizens for Professional Wildlife Management (http://www.citizenswildlife.org/).

We'll be collecting petition signatures as part of the important work at our GreatLakesBass.com Outdoorama booth.
