Really!!! I have fished "private" canals my entire life. You can't even travel to "public water" without trespassing. I can't stand a thief, vandal, poacher etc. I do not own bolt cutters. But to see places that responsible outdoorsman have fished with their parents and grandparents and now can't take their children is just horrible. I took a trip to lake fork in 2010 with my dad and all I heard from our guide was he would never come back to Louisiana after being run out of a canal that had no gate or posted signs. Maybe the honest fisherman should do a better job of helping wildlife agents. I don't know the solution, I just think it's sad. I fish the lake verret area.. If all the canals like cracker head, the oxy fields become off limits like Curtis breaux has it would be really tragic

Also how about some kinda statement on why the Curtis Breaux canal got gated off after all these years. If Troy Landry gated it off , why the heck doesn't he come out and say why he did it. Lots of his own fans / ex fans are wanting to know this answer.

Also the general,public , all us taxpayers and fishing license holders would like to be informed as to what the future holds for us. Someone who's already purchased a lifetime fishing license deserves an answer even more so. He's
