Tremendous challenges face both the citizens and the natural resources of that region and it will take an equally tremendous effort from anglers and sportsmen across the country to help in the recovery. CCA has an entire portion of our CCA Newsroom devoted to information concerning the oil spill to keep members, volunteers, and the general public updated on this unprecedented event.
