I'm still not sure I understand why people are intent on mentioning that his withdrawal has a down side. The fact is he and his club lost. They started the appeal, but withdrew it. That still means they lost. Each case in the state is going to be different because each stream has a different history, so even if he kept his appeal in and then lost, you still couldn't solely rely on this case to pattern after. At least not any more than you can now. Whatever the case, it's good to see he lost and finally decided to own up to it by withdrawing the appeal. Thanks for the coverage Tom. We need more guys like you to cover the issues without slanting you columns based on who does or doesn't let you fish for their hatchery trout.
