'Sea party' protest in Florida against regulation

March has been a month of fishing protests in the U.S.

Chafing against stricter government regulation of Snapper, Florida fisherman held a 'sea party protest' against tighter fishing limits. Days later in Washington D.C., hundreds gathered outside the Capitol to rally against increased government management of saltwater fisheries.

Here's a good reminder that we are all connected and facing similar issues trying to balance environmental needs with needs of those who depend on resources.

It's an issue relevant to us, happening now.
