Dear Mr. Chairman:

I am a licensed saltwater angler in Texas and I do not support SB 1790 which aims to prohibit individuals from using croaker as live bait. Recreational fishing is one of the most popular outdoor sporting activities in Texas. Recreational fishing makes a major contribution to the economy and quality of life in our state. There is no reasonable justification for the ban proposed in SB 1790. This bill will have a negative impact on our coastal communities and our quality of life here in Texas. Therefore, I urge you not to support SB 1790. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Name: ______________________________
