Anyone,
As suggested by Dave Reault the TBF has begin looking into the discharging of Ballast waters into the great lakes. This routine protocol has been believed to have introduce many foreign invasive specious to the Great Lakes. There are many different organizations out there who have gotten aboard on many different ideas of what should be done with this matter. As an organization we are going to be the first Bass Organization that will be looking to join with other locals that would like to see something done with this problem.
If there is anyone that would like to get involved with helping, that would be great, I am still learning more about this myself and it has been eye opening. An odd turn of events has taken place though that looks like it could be promising After talking again with Dave this afternoon I went to check email and on local yahoo there was an article on point dealing with this matter. If anyone wants to know a little this article shows some.

Again anyone intrested in helping start something with this let me know and we will be coming up with ideas plans strategies or whatever needs to be done. This will be an TBF conservation project but everyone is welcome to participate.
Thanks,
Jeff Cox
