George is right on target.  This is not as difficult as dodging a
subpoena.
List in the BNL and/or killielist (either one or both).  People are free
to list fish at anytime on either list and here is an addition-at the
local club level perhaps a member of the club who is also on the email
lists could list members, their addresses or phone numbers, and fish for
sale on the email listings.  Get the info at the monthly meeting, do it
one time and be done with it.  It would give non computer members of
local clubs a chance to list on the internet and maybe sell more of
their fish.  If you keep it simple things can work, but make it
complicated and it is doomed.  Complex schemes get accomplished by a
zealot, then the zealot burns out, no one else wants the grief and the
scheme dies.
