Geez I did not realize so much land was private down there.

I've never sat down and tried to figure it out but something like 1/10th of tidal marsh is publicly accessible. The rest is either private or can not be accessed. Fouchon beach is a good example of public property with access cut off by adjoining land owners.

If you used Terrebonne as an example, there is about 600k acres of marsh. Give or take a few thousand. Of that total, roughly 15 thousand of it is public land.
