Do we have any contacts in CCA? Did you talk to someone on the oyster task force or someone who works for LDWF? I have never been to Calcasieu Lake but I'd willing to help with this to the best of my ability. Do we have numbers or proof somewhere that these reefs aren't naturally replenishing themselves, or are we a bunch of fishermen that are mad because our best spots are being taken? I want to be a part of this regardless of which, but dealing with the science community they are taught to be skeptical of everything you tell them. Meetings sound like it would be the best way to concentrate everyone's effort on this so that we could get someone of importance to the oyster community to listen. Maybe we could contact someone from CCA and get them to correlate it for us. My boss is on the oyster task force ill talk to him and see if he can help point us to the right person to talk to.
