Calcasieu Trout Shootout
Do they still have the Calcasieu Lake trout shootout? If so when is it?
|
Used to be 1st weekend in June
|
Trout Shootout
Yes, but I haven't heard or seen anything about it.
|
Use to be a huge event a lot of fun
|
They stopped having it for 2 main reasons.
1. Lack of participation. 2. Lack of volunteers to run it. My brother won the last one they had. 1st prize was only half of what it usually was due to low participation. |

No one supports CCA around here
I mean they were so quick to push and support a limit change against biologists and now going on 13 years since June 20 2006 we have not had a 1% trout population increase !!! This was the words 13 years ago ?This is more of a social issue than a biological issue,? Pausina said. ?Statewide, trout stocks are healthy. The biomass for the last three years is the highest it has ever been, except for one year in the early 1980s.? ?The move to cut the daily bag limit from 25 specks to 15 was pushed by a coalition including the Louisiana chapter of the Coastal Conservation Association and some of the fishing guides and outfitters operating on Calcasieu Lake.? During the LWF Commis- sion meeting, Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries coastal fisheries staff told the group the agency's biological data indicates speckled trout fisheries in the bay systems were healthy and said reducing the bag limit would not guarantee increased trout populations in the affected areas. Those opposed to the bag limit reduction said the fisheries staff's assessment showed the move was not scientifically justified and should not be imposed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
