Cross Trackers
http://www.crosstrackers.com/
CrossTrackers is a hunting and fishing club promoting healthy realationships with our God and our families. This club is a place for men with similar passions for hunting and fishing to come together, network, and build a family of support. We are not interested in who is the best fisherman, we have the best, and we are not interested in who is the best hunter, we have the best hunters. We are concerned about helping our brothers discover something new and exciting about our sports. We are concerned about the guy on our left and on our right.

Keeping an Eye on the Diamond
It is an exciting time to be a member of CCA in the Pacific Northwest. With significant growth on the horizon, a full slate of contentious advocacy issues, and a focus on the fundamentals that have made CCA strong, there is a lot to stir the excitement.
CCA Pacific Northwest will become successful by carefully balancing four key elements - membership, fundraising, advocacy, and communications. Like the four points of a diamond, no single one of these elements can exist or be effective on its own. But, by combining these points of focus, the organization grows stronger in influence in the political arenas that manage the direction of our fisheries and the future of our coastal resources - and it all starts and ends with the local chapters.

Oregon Anglers
http://www.oregon-anglers.org/index.htm
Oregon Anglers was formed to find ways to meet the needs of both the state's diverse wildlife, and the practical and economic needs of the communities that depend on the fishers and hunters.
Those of us in the environmental community need to consider the needs of both the increasing population and that of various threatened species. We believe that there is adequate room to compromise, and come up with a "win-win" consensus that can help wildlife thrive, yet not destroy the economies of Oregon's communities.

Western Natural Resource Center
The landscapes along the Pacific Coast are among the most diverse in the country. From the desert to the coastal rainforests, and from Puget Sound to the "gems of the Pacific," the wildlife species that depend on these habitats in Washington, Oregon, California and Hawaii are also diverse and among the most treasured by people throughout the world. NWF works hard to protect these habitats for the benefit of all wildlife and people--focusing especially on the protection and restoration of threatened and endangered species such as salmon. Climate change is expected to take a large toll on wildlife in the region, and NWF is working to help people understand and minimize the impacts.

Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen's Associations
http://www.pcffa.org/
The Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen's Associations (PCFFA) is by far the largest and most politically active trade association of commercial fishermen on the west coast. For nearly the last 30 years, we have been leading the industry in assuring the rights of individual fishermen and fighting for the long-term survival of commercial fishing as a productive livelihood and way of life.
As its lengthy name makes clear, PCFFA is an "umbrella" group made up of diverse associations all along the west coast. PCFFA is, in fact, a federation of many different port and fishermen's marketing associations with members spanning the US west coast from San Diego to Alaska. It is funded principally through assessments on catches, collected at the local port level; those monies go to support local association activities and a portion is transmitted to PCFFA to fund activities affecting all of its member groups. It is a "bottom-up" organization, rather than "top-down"; it begins with the individual fishing man or woman belonging to their local association.
