I said from day one that dredging would kill the lake....there is a bill right now to protect our artificial reefs

if they ban oyster fishing wont people who oyster fish lose their jobs because they cant oyster fish any more.

Yep but W has already figured that part out, see below which he posted in 2011.



We are not wanting to take any jobs away.,,, your missing the point...we have no beds left and we do not seed...so the ones who don't care and just want a fast in and out buck should have to work for it.... If the want to come tong come tong..but right now you have 250 boats dredging on 6 reefs... I promise if they ban dredging and go to tong only for anyone who wants to oyster... You will have 25-30 boats working... And BTW I crawfished for 8 years and I know how hard that BS is.....
