Lobbying for unscientific fishing regulations has impacted the whole state, and the whole state is at continued risk of calls for lower trout limits in the future, even though the fishery says the trout stocks are fine. The unscientific imposition of the tripletail limit is also state wide.

Sure, they've put in a few artificial reefs on the E side, but oyster reefs enhance production by providing a wide variety of ecosystem services. Artificial reefs in most areas of LA will just serve to attract trout so they are more easily caught. CCA knows this well, which is why TX gets the oyster reefs.

They've also got 12 employees with salaries over $100k, all TX residents. CCA Louisiana is a shell game to fleece gullible anglers and bring the bacon home to TX.
