Did anybody go to the Key Largo Meeting? The Homestead one was very constructive and positive. Not a whole lot of opposition. More about getting it right than about whether to do it or not.
I didn't attend the Largo meeting but have commented online. Glad to hear Homestead was a productive meeting. From the perspective of a fisherman and conservationist I think one can point to the closed areas in North FL Bay as one reason the quality of fishing has held up in spite of the incredible increase in pressure. In other words, the park service got that one right in spite of a lot of criticism at the time and we should trust them to get this one right too.
