RIGHT TO FISH AND HUNT. - Proposing an amendment to the State Constitution to preserve forever fishing and hunting, including by the use of traditional methods, as a public right and preferred means of responsibly managing and controlling fish and wildlife. Specifies that the amendment does not limit the authority granted to the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission under Section 9 of Article IV of the State Constitution.

I am fine with hunting and fishing in Florida, but what are "traditional methods?"

Dynamite? Gill nets? Purse seines? Snatch hooks?

-------------------------
I was right.

Remember when the Gold Dust brothers would take entire schools of menhaden back in the day with massive Purse Seine nets. I do.

Is this a historic fishing method?

-------------------------
I was right.

Make gill nets great again.
I voted against it.

-------------------------
It's a democratic hoax

Good Day, I haven't come across anyone who voted against the right to hunt and fish.

As a life long angler and hunter I am simply curious why someone would be against this? I obviously have a skewed view and I truly want to learn or get inside the mind of someone who is opposed to it.

May I ask if you are a native Floridian?

Thanks for your time.

I voted against it. It was too vague. Traditional methods? What are exactly are traditional methods? Hunting and fishing is already protected by law.

I am a 4th generation Floridian and can clearly recall the nets sweeping our area clean of everything. The net ban was the best thing to ever happen in Florida.
