Time to pay up if your gonna hunt Venice

. People hunting public land but claiming it to be private (where have we heard that before?) and an initial step at trying to limit the use of surface drive engines in the marsh.

is this the real issue?

because if it is, i'm all for it...surface drives are the worst thing to happen to our coastal marshes since the nutria rat, and assholes that ride all over and thru the flats wide open on these rigs deserve all the scorn they can get

stay in the fricking channel, and if you want to get over then pole in like the rest of us. marsh access isnt supposed to be unencumbered

And Darrel carpenter is sky screaming once again

Especially when you have 300,000 acres not but 10 minutes away

Am I reading this wrong?

If you book an inshore charter in Venice everyone on the boat has to buy a $250 permit?

This just does not seem smart on an economical level. Think of all the money they may lose from people not hunting or fishing down there as much as they have in the pass. I personally think this has nothing to do with liability, access, or mud motors. instead, I think it's just another way politicians and greedy government members can make more money. Honestly, do you think they actually care about people' hunting rights and access as long as they are getting paid. Its all about the money.

As far as mud motors DESTROYING the marsh, that's a pile of BS. If that's the case, the explain why both the Atchafalaya River delta and the Mississippi River delta have grown tremendously?
