Yes. Trust me when I tell you it is SUPER CROWDED. Group distances are less than 150 yards. It won't be a good hunt and is borderline dangerous. It is an outright sausage fest. Too many hunters. It is probably better to go back to the way it was because people aren't behaving themselves. It is sad.



I'm glad the game wardens will be there. The rewards will be many for him.



Read the regulations for yourself.

All hunt participants must include one youth or senior participant. They don't specify how many per party or anything like that.

I did speak with the Cameron Praire Refuge Manager. He explained the youth are 17 and under. Meaning if they DIDN'T reach their 18 B day. They are legal...

Adults are 21 and over. The only way it will change, is to call the Cameron prairie Manager, who is in charge of the 3 Refuges if you have problems.

Nothing against the Cameron Prairie manager, who I have never met or talked to, but if he is like managers in any business when he gets complaints like this the first reaction will be to just shut it all down. Problem taken care of.



Years ago the Lacassine Refuge had 11 full time employees. Today they have one part time employee. With their current budget there is no way they can "manage" a refuge much less police it and take care of it.


I looked forward to a hunt there when my grandsons and son came for their Christmas visit. The only place I could take them hunting without having a $6,000 lease.

Surely the refuge employees do not ?police? it. I would think they are there for management/maintenance.
Game Wardens should be the enforcers.
That maybe what you meant anyways.

When I spoke with the lady who answers the phone when you call The southwest complex HQ (very very nice) she said the place is like a bowl and does not drain , therefore making it difficult to farm and would now be a huge undertaking for a farmer to re do levees/roads.
Guess it will be a deep Water marsh now . Water control would be nice but I?m going to venture to say vegetation control would be more important in the next few years
