Anglers and boaters can now express their opinions on the Fish and Boat Commission through an online Sportsmen’s Forum Public Opinion Poll in addition to or instead of attending one of the five remaining Sportsmen’s Forums.

The survey asks you to answer 11 questions about funding and programs of the Fish and Boat Commission, including where you would cut programs or raise revenues.

“Declining fishing license sales and boat registration fees coupled with increasing costs make it necessary to take a fresh look at redesigning the agency’s strategic plan,” said Executive Director John Arway. “The information learned will be used to help form a new agency strategic plan to meet the expectations of anglers and boaters.”

Come in person to one of the five remaining Forums will be held at the following locations--

-- February 17: Allegheny Outdoor, Sport & Travel Show, Monroeville Convention Center, Monroeville, Stage 2, 10:00;

-- February 24: Fly-Fishing & Wing Shooting Expo, Split Rock Resort, Lake Harmony, Striped Bass Room, 4:00;

-- March 3: Erie Sport & Travel Expo, Bayfront Convention Center, Erie, Room 140 ABC, 10:00;
