I use to work for the marsh club years ago. They use to keep an air boat ready to run people off. If you get caught once don't get caught again.

Last time I was in there earlier this year they had just put up brand new posted signs. This was a week before bassmasters.

I am asking because I fish the tuesday afternoon tournaments on the sabine and thought it was private. A group has been fishing it and has won several times so people are wondering if that was legal or not.

Shouldn't be legal for tournament. That marsh goes all the way into the tourist bureau pond and I know that pond has some nice fish.

I have thought about fishing that lake in my kayak and launching at the tourist bureau. Does that mean the lake there is also private?

The lake is not private. I know a few people that launch yaks there and do well.

Not a fact. I've talked to many state officials about this. Navigable water is based on navigational maps from the 1800's. This was changed back in early 90's. I've fought this battle and its not worth it.

You are correct. Navigable water ways are defined as usable for commerce according to the law as it reads (but there's more to it also, just keeping it simple) and this is very outdated anyways. Not just if you can float a boat in it. This is what needs to change in the laws in Louisiana.
