I think the Big Lake area wasn't hit as hard as Breton Sound, Barataria Bay, Terrebone Bay, Shell Beach, Lake Borgne, Grand Isle, Venice, Louisiana Marsh WMA, etc. The menhanden fishery is noticeably absent this year as well. Areas were we have cast-netted for adult menhaden for the last 40 years were completely barren this year which is troubling to me.
