It is not the governments job to be out there day in and day out baby sitting the law breakers. There have been warnings, signs and now a public meeting that no one showed up for. If the public don't care, if they are trashy, then i don't blame them for taking away the PRIVELADGES. Thats right, it was a priveladge to go out there and shrimp, not a right!!!! And if they are so damn hungry for shrimp, dey can paddle a little old boat out there and throw der nets all day long now.

You sir are 100% right on..... You look at the groups who are the ones that make the rights get taken......
True Cajun folks would not treat the land and waterways like this...thats why it has been a privilege to use for so long...then Trash over takes them and gives not a damn

You look at the ticket violations on Big lake.......Look at the class of people who get them.... There are more oyster violation tickets written in one day than out of all the guide outfits in one year....

There are more tickets written at the weirs for taken to many shrimp than fishing tickets all year.....

Same with the ones who fish beyond the signs....

And you can bet your azz.....sooner than later you will not be allowed to fish the weirs at all... 1000 feet both ways.....

Reason..Some cant read...So if you see a boat beyond the sign you better make them move or your privileges are a coming thing
