re: Maurepas Swamp Duck Hunting

Swamps are extremely complicated things. No two are alike, and making a plan to manage them is always an educated guess by the HNIC. A lot of times, the people managing them disagree on the process, but everyone is always chasing the same goal.

It could've been the higher clean water levels moved detritus around. River water could've added sediment. Could've been both. Hell, it is good for some swamps when you see the top few feet of soil dry up and crack open. What we do know is that salt water is extremely bad for the trees in that area. They cannot tolerate it.


Moral of the story is that there's no better place in the world than inside a South Louisiana swamp
