BTW if you think Miami cares about duck leases then apparently you have never leased from them. Fishing and hunting is just a drop in the bucket compared to oil royalty and pipeline.

We had a lease near Wax Lake for 30 years and while the prices weren't outrageous (compared to those at Pecan Island), we received "zero" support from Miami when we had problems. I threw in the towel about 10 years ago.
