Making Calcasieu Lake a "Trophy Lake", by name only, draws a lot more fishermen than when it was just Big Lake.
Now we got people from all over the country coming over here to catch our dinks.
There are big fish caught all over the state. Just we got the designation of a "Trophy Lake", the rest of the state doesn't.
It helps the guide business only. Not much else.
Before the change, there were 3 or 4 guide businesses, now there are many.
In my opinion, the fishermen who are suckers for the "Trophy Lake" thing are just that, suckers. They come here to catch 15 Trout, instead of 25 Trout at other La. fisheries.
If I were paying, I'd rather catch 25.
