Let's split some hairs...
Remember when they used to have the "You make the call." things during NFL games? Ok, what would you do?
Per the LA Wildlife and Fisheries website:
"Within the area described here, of the daily take and possession limit of 15 spotted seatrout, no person shall possess, regardless of where taken, more than two spotted seatrout exceeding 25 inches total length, which are considered part of the daily bag and possession limit. These regulations apply to the area of the state, including coastal territorial waters, south of Interstate 10 from its junction at the Texas-Louisiana boundary eastward to its junction with Louisiana Highway 171, south to Highway 14, and then south to Holmwood, and then south on Highway 27 through Gibbstown south to Louisiana Highway 82 at Creole and south on Highway 82 to Oak Grove and then due south to the western shore of the MermentauRiver, following this shoreline south to the junction with the Gulf of Mexico, and then due south to the limit of the state territorial sea."
Now, if I launch north of I-10 but fish both North and South of the interstate how many fish can I keep? OR, say I launch North of I-10 and fish North of I-10 but i have to travel South of the interstate to go North? This only applies to a very small part of the upper Calcasieu estuary but is a very real scenario.
I know what I would do but wanted to get your opinions.
If there are any LDWF guys on the site, what would be the ruling?
