[CEO]

 Distinctly, a must attend meeting for ALL Newcastle ECOfishers past and present. For if we all do nothing then nothing will change ! Recent ECOfishers victories include:-
          1) a deferal of the proposed restructure of our Fisheries Compliance Officers.
          2) represented NSW recreational fishers in the Grey Nurse shark court case, brought by the radical NCC. We won!
          3) Negotiated with NSW Fisheries minister, a "no extensions - no additions," to Grey Nurse fishing exclusion zones, including Little Broughton Is at Port Stephens.
              (The extreme Green NCC wanted it ALL locked-up, forever, with a permanent 1.5 km sanctuary zone around it ALL year.)
 We all know what the problems are, JOIN ECOfishers and become a part of the solution. For if we all do NOTHING, then nothing will change. Remember, the Green are demanding up to 50% of our coastal waters be locked-up in, no-fishing, sanctuary zones by 2010!  So your rights are at stake. Can you afford NOT to belong to ECOfishers??   CEO.
