Awesome.. post Capt. Spot on!

DB2013 I'm very sorry you feel mud-boats(motorized pi-rouges,long tails) has compromised your hunting however, they have been in parish for very long time along with air boats. Surface drives seems more of an issue, lets not forget air boats running ducks all over for may years either.

Lets be real if you choose not to hunt from surface driven boat don't bash fellow sportsmen for doing so, it is Legal they are not breaking any laws. I am very thankful to have this public opportunity, we have choices Delta, Pass A loutre in evenings or get a private lease.

I 100 percent agree with you on someone putting up blinds and running you out, I have had more run-ins with local guide services than non resident guides . What's not right either is lease holders posting tidal water way access to public lands . Locals guides posting school board properties with written leases from people that has mineral rights only.

In closing would like to say I have no problem with anyone who hunts legal( resident or non) and respects our privilege. Lets learn to adapt and stop blaming for our short Cummings. God bless and have safe and productive opener.

DB2013 I have hunted Plaquemines parish for 35 years I remember: 'like it use to be' and have seen many changes. But also remember big declines in duck numbers in Plaquemines before the surface drives were in the picture.

Would environment changes have an effect? (marshes,salt water intrusion)
Could human related factors contribute to duck staying up north longer during hunting seasons? (no till farming corn & beans or flooding crop fields)

I remember hunting in Port Sulphur 'like it use to be': easy limits many years ago, can you blame it on the surface drive-boats or the guides from out of town why there is no ducks?

Good proposal Edgecombe and Others on council that voted in this one.

I'll may sure my crew doesn't spend a dime above boat launch. We'll bring our bait, ice, lures, shotgun shells, gas, diesel, food, drinks, and other misc items for my camp.

Maybe these owners may want to get involved:Chevron(donut shop), Dollar store, Venice marina & restaurant, Joshua bar, Daiquiri shop, Orange festival, Chinese restaurant, Subway, Ace hardware, Happy land, Hansens seafood dock, Salvo's, Zidecos, Velvet, and others we spend money.

Our group spends about 1800/21,600 Month/Year on average and have influence on friends,customers,and co-workers as well; you don't have to be genius to figure this one.

Priceless pic that says a thousand words, God bless you both.

My pledge sent and Tom is the real deal! They have already raped us for reef fishing, inshore will be next.

Sh**T he didn't blame it on Jindal for making him appoint Charlie Melancon???

Thanks Bayou
Have an great season and be safe.
Reguards,

I understand your point and respect your entitlement. Furthermore, looking into the propertys on this map outlined(public) are not leaseable.

Can you owners and leasees provide any updated documentation prooving your acquisition of these common property's in question this would be very helpfull to the fellow sportsmens that hunt this area and enforcement agencies?

Last season I question two WLF agenst in Baptiste in reguards to posting common propertys on the map, they were lost did not know updated propertys. Also, these agents were not interested in pursuing unlawful posting.

Please understand it's tuff to trust when you have certain groups that what to ban mudboats on common propertys and not on private in reguards not issueing maps.
Makes me beleive it's who you know go- figure.

Rather than calling the number I thought it would be fair to post for sportsmen to read and help understand Baptiste boundries.

Thank you very much for you coopration,
TeamX

With respect I hunt Baptiste and have an map of school board and private propertys,
last season I noticed an area that was on school board property that was posted by a guide.
Is not fair for me not to hunt these posted properties?

Thehunter your spot-on..

However, fish commander I was a louisiana fishing guide also have friends and customers that are guides. I am not bias. But it burned when you bashed Mike, he's not taking sides between fishermen. Also how dare you patronize us sportsmen/fishermen on this site by making claims you're helping the average joe,Really!(500pp a day average)

All fishermen are stressed over what these COMMUNIST CLOWNS are implementing. This is a fact and not an hypothesis if we do not stick together all of us will Lose!

I shot a 6pt on Monday and hit in the right shoulder and it went through the shoulder and cut 3 ribs on each side took out both lungs and heart,using Vortec 125.
Check out the pic I posted last night and you can see I had nice size exit.

My 10 year old catches a 10 inch red fish and upon releasing it turns belly up...citation for undersized fish + restitution and loss of privileges for year?

Honest mistake...I made the same one in Venice,but was not caught.Poor Decision to write that citation,warning maybe.

I have used Mr.Ron Novac(Wild Wing Kennels) to train one of my labs(Pepper)and after 4 months I had a outstanding hunting partner...I would highly recommend Mr.Ron and @ the time he was in Robert,La.

WE are about 8 miles east of town off of Hwy 98.Thanks.

Fog engine with mercury power tune and try a different compression gauge because they will read higher or lower than others.Hope this helps before you change gaskets.

We were fishing about 30 to 60 feet.

Yes that launch is useable.

It takes about 20 minutes from the boat club to get most of the area I'm fishing,its a very easy trip and I do not have to cross the river.
