Embedded within these statements is the subjective. What is legitimate? What is unreasonable?

If you are close to the industry (i.e. friend of a captain) your opinion of the criticism will be biased. It's human nature. I'm just preparing the OP for reality.

I don't have a dog in this hunt (not in the industry) so take my advice for what it's worth. This place does not take too kindly to criticism of charter captains.

If you want to post some more details do so but keep in mind a lot of people on this site are either captains themselves or friends with charter captains so they will defend the charter industry.

I don't have time to be entertained by you clowns anymore. Got to go get the boat ready to fish in some public water tomorrow like the Attorney General says I can.

Not to worry my friend. I know and understand the law. I also know that judges don't actually apply the "law" in all circumstance. It's politics.

You, on the other hand, are probably some old fart that thinks he can keep me from fishing in a public bayou simply because you've done it for years. Maybe we'll cross paths one day and I'll show your old arse that I have every right to use all the public waters of the state.

If he really is a lawyer that's actually sad. If you can't differentiate the basic concepts of bed/bank ownership vs water ownership then you have no business being a lawyer.

I'm sorry you are unable to grasp the concept that bed/bank ownership is separate from water ownership.

For navigability, yes.

I think you're confusing who owns the bed and banks with who owns the water. See the following link for some clarification. Just because a private landowner owns the bed doesn't mean he "owns" the water.

Do you have a case (or any law) stating that a land owner may post a natural bayou running through private land?

As in, you can't boat down the bayou.

Meh, if I did a canal through my property, and due to the hydrology of the area, water runs through said canal, it's still private


See my comments earlier in the thread. Yes, privately dug canals are private. However, if you have a bayou running through your land, you can't prevent others form boating down said bayou.

Yea there are many coonasses in South LA that attempt to do this but that doesn't make it legal.

The mere fact that the water itself may be public,


That's the point. The water is public. It doesn't mean you can get out the boat or use the bank. But float the boat, you may.

Damn straight. Going in there and doing a job doesn't mean they respect the 'artists' and their tune. They suck and hope they go away soon.


And who's to say that FGL write and sings good "country" music when in private but have to release these so called "shitty" songs in order to put food on the table. If they're sell outs then anyone who plays/sings/performs with them are just as guilty.

You can't have it both ways. Bash the artist then defend the studio musicians playing on their records.

Just like the studio musicians...FGL does it for the money

What an intelligent contribution to this thread.

"Running water" is public. Sorry that you're butt hurt about this.

ETA: Until a court says otherwise, I'm going to fish in all "running waters"

The OP wanted to cross property lines in his boat over water.

And the water is irrelevant. You must be one of those Internet lawyers I've heard about

re: Property line question

Posted by JayWall on 3/20/14 at 5:35 pm to
The waterway you are referring to is likely man-made. Like I said before, in that case it is private. If its a natural bayou that's running water, it's public. That's the law.

Remember just because its the law doesn't mean that's the way a court is going to rule. This is Louisiana after all

Navigable is the word that gets a lot of folks in trouble
Under Louisiana law, just because one can "navigate" a water body does not give the public the right to go upon private property.


All running waters are public, navigable or not. Unless its water made with private funds. Then it's private.

So to answer the question...no the pond is not running water. However, if it is classified as a lake (not a privately dug pond) you're good to go. Lakes are public.

My comment was directed towards...

they'll never receive respect from anyone who's involved in the musician community.


They do get respect. From fellow artists and musicians. If the musicians think their music is complete crap they should choose not to play on the records or in the live band.

I'm not defending or hating on FGL. They sell lots of records and lots of concert tickets. Whether or not I, or anyone on this board, like them is irrelevant.
I'd venture to say there are some pretty talented musicians in their band and playing on the albums.
It hurts that they'll make more money off of this one song than you'll make in your entire life doesn't it?
Find the damn fish and throw an anchor.

No need for a trolling motor.

Thank me later.
