Most people who want to hunt and fish everyone else's marshes aren't land owners, but you better believe if they won the lottery and bought a big chunk of land that they would change their mind.

We're the only state in the nation having this argument, and I think sooner or later something will be done. Like W said, maybe something like having to allow access to fishermen from mid-March to mid-October. With the law written as is right now, I think landowners should either put up gates or quit their bit*****.

The gates are what we don't want. We want to take back are marsh
