A win for Florida shark fishermen (Indian River county)

Finally the people in local beachside community goverments are better understanding our rights as Americans and as fisherman.A victory for sure because no ban was passed instead lifeguards and police can ask shark fisherman to leave a beach if someone complains or feels in danger.Makes sense to me!!! Responsible shark fisherman understand what they can ,and cannot do. Hooray for the fisherman and hooray for the Indian River commisioners for doing the right thing .Keep an eye on this ruling and the commisioners defense of fishing in there county and then pointing out the inherent risk of any beachgoer choosing to enter a wild, live, BEACH full of sealife not just sharks.This ruling will set precedent for future fights in our battle to protect our rights as fisherman from shore in the state of Florida.Watch!!

I'm glad they rember why this is a great country. Many wars have been fought to keep the rights we hold dear, whether it be for free interprise, freedom of religion or the right to fish how we want to. Sometimes I wonder if the government has lost touch with the common man. Lets hope for the best.
