I believe it's far from over.
This subject seems to be the topic of discussion in a lot of places I've been lately. The word is spreading and way more people ( taxpayers ) are unhappy than happy about this.

I have a problem gating a canal that has been public for decades
Was never public, just a private canal with an owner who allowed access. Doesn't take a fence to make it private property, just a fence to limit access.

Well, even if that's the case you can see how it might ruffle some unknowing feathers. It's going to mean the Popo getting involved sooner than later.

Can't win a legitimate battle like the red snapper catch and you think they have a shot at this that is at least protecting property owners.

This is just the evolution of things, my father talks of how they would just go along the road and pull off in some woods and start hunting when he was growing up. You can't do that anymore, same thing is starting to happen with private property with water on it due to people not respecting the property, poachers in this instance. Wildlife and fisheries agents will tell you poaching is worse along the water so this is a landowner trying to protect his land. Does it suck that he's shutting the canal off, yes, but I can understand reasoning.

I can dig it, it's just not gonna happen over night. The biggest problems will come from the locals, they resist change more than outsiders.
Good luck with it.
Good luck with it.

In every state BUT Louisiana if you build a private canal and tie the canal into a public body of water your canal would then become public

Greedy lawyers, corrupt politicians and the good ole boy club of Judge's are the problem. Louisiana is fricking sue happy, which is why auto insurance rates are so high. If two people get in a boat wreck that had zero to do with the canal itself, can't the owner get sued?

Not only the landowner, but the lease holder as well. Personnel injury attorneys were so desperate they got the guy from the Goonies elected governor because Vitter promised Tort reform. I don't see the legislature opening up that can of worms just to change laws to serve the general public and grant them access to other people's property. It would require limiting lawyers the ability to sue people. Those parasites need jobs after they finish their terms in office.

Check out recreational land immunity.
Posted on 2/6/16 at 8:50 am to AlxTgr
How about you explain it instead of making someone go thru the 8-9 pages of laws
Posted on 2/6/16 at 10:06 am to Capt ST
No. You jaggoffs don't believe me anyway.

Just reading the sentence I would infer that the landowner is not responsible for accidents that happen during recreational activities. Unless that has passed in the last 2 years it doesn't hold up in coastal La from the boating and hunting accidents that have happened the last decade that I know about in terrebonne parish. And the drunk guy that was running wide open at 10pm in a bass boat, struck a weir that had been in place for decades, sued because he couldn't see it.

I believe you.... I just think the laws in this state are wrong
Posted on 2/7/16 at 11:24 am to Wacker
Wrong? How? Do you not respect private property?
Posted on 2/7/16 at 12:34 pm to AlxTgr
No taxpayer wants something taken away from them and that's what's happening.
We've been fishing in these places for years and now the hunters who mostly just hunt a few months out of the year want to keep us fisherman out of these places all year long , every year. We never touch their land as I stated before . We just want to be on the water
That's just wrong. We all need to contact our state elected officials and inform them of our displeasure as taxpayers and their constituents.
Am sure we outnumber the opposition but if we don't make a push we will unfortunately continue to just get run over by this issue.

I do respect private property.. I just don't view a canal that connects to a river as private property.. Most people don't. This is going to be a battle.
