Did anyone attend the recent Fishermen's Rally in Washington DC?

Reports on attendance vary, with most sources claiming that 3000-5000 stakeholders attended, with the ratio of recreational and commercial fishermen being about 50-50.

As a result of the rally, a number of new bills have been introduced that seek to ease restrictions on the fishing community.

If anyone has links to articles about the rally or its effects, please post them.
