I really think it will be overturned. Not for true reasons of law, but more pragmatic ones.

Permanently levee it off and the now stagnit water and the dirt under that water is now your land
But if the land owner chooses not to permanently levee it off and continues to have tidal movement then the water only should be accessible by everyone

Not if there's a gate

Oh contrare Poly...for this poster owns a large track of land with a tidal movement body of water passing through a portion of land track.
This poster does not post no tresspassing signs nor trys to run off any boat that accessess this body of water.
Please enlighten us all as to what Bassmasters true position is on this issue.
Your assinine statement may ring true but opens the question as to why these land owners you speak of have the need to have the position of "I own it all".

These "adults" still haven't figured it out. Now you've just resorted to a message board airing out your troubles that fall on deaf ears. Land owners can gate off their property because it belongs to them. Natural waterways is a gray area, if they are man made canals even if makes the land tidal, its trespassing.

Not even close to being an accurate statement.

Tell me the truth
Posted on 8/11/17 at 11:25 am to PolyPusher86
Canals dug that change the hydrology of a region and make naturally navigable bodies non-navigable can be subject to being a public thing.
Canals dug with public funds on private property can be deemed public things.
Canals dug with private funds on private lands are likely private things.

I gotcha, still a highly debatable thing especially whether you know how it was dug, with public funds or not, etc. I know the land I'm talking about was dug by a private company by private landowners back in the 40's in order to get barges to oil wells.The gray area is where this private land connects to public and I'd imagine that's a lot of cases thruout Louisiana

Yes. My intent is to point out how Louisiana has utterly f-ed up this situation. Have left it up to a case-by-case basis for millions of canals and bayous, and has pushed the enforcement part down to the local sheriff department level.
Todd Masson has just released a second article on the subject, has some hard hitting quotes in there. Linkage

It will ALWAYS be a battle between land owners and fishermen. Guy pays big money for property and every tom dick and harry wants to be in there and are hanging onto "if it floats, it boats". Interesting article, as the article says, the local law enforcement usually sides with the land owners and I've seen that happen several times.

Really? We have family land that is mostly swamp, bordered on 2 sides by water and has no roads to it. We pay pennies on the dollar for taxes compared to my residential property tax.
It's the same rate as the non submerged land you have in that area. There is no Louisiana property tax, only local (parish and city in Lafayette, possibly school board or school district or other types of taxes in other places). It's based on the value of your property as determined by the parish tax assessor, typically. Some (possibly most) jurisdictions have different rates for different types of property. That often means undeveloped property and farmland are taxed at a lower percentage than residential property and business property is usually handled differently, as well.

I don't understand how Louisiana can have so much trouble with it when literally every other state in the country has laws that allow public access to any navigable water. Hopefully change is coming, but I won't hold my breath. Like Hackney said, oil and gas have deep pockets and they are going to fight it to the end.

Bingo
You shouldn't be able to own tidal waterways period.
