re: Time to pay up if your gonna hunt Venice

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?
