Okay ... I guess I worded it incorrectly. Yes, we have to "sell to the commission", but not the the fella that walks down to the river once a year ... you know, those that show up with a tackle box and their 9.99 Eagle Claw rod from Fred Meyers. They could, as a general rule, care less about the process!

Perhaps it's time to look at a different way to select our state board as well! But that's a whole 'nother subject
