Rockefeller Refuge Update

Asphalt does not cure properly when the ambient temperature gets below 65°. That is why it is normally laid in the summer months.

Duck Butter-is your sarcasm really necessary? Doesn't add to what I assumed was an intelligent exchange of information. In your case, I was obviously wrong.

Definitely not necessary, that was not directed at you

But its also not necessary to call every senator and congressman to complain that a boat ramp is getting fixed, when they probably heard 100s of complaints that the boat ramp NEEDED fixing

I didn't know that cajun, makes more sense now, but I still think there are some options available to keep the refuge accessible by small boats.

I agree, since the boat ride from the rollover landing includes 14 miles in the gulf. It seems that arrangements could be made to launch into the superior canal (private launch). At least you would have access to the east side. Or, the project could be split into two phases allowing access to one of the landings near headquarters at all times. Just my thoughts.

I know some spots that are going to be absolute dynamite due to the closure. Can't wait to go. Prolly give them about a month to stack up with fish and then go bushwackem.

Gentlemen!!! Price lake road is closed I think.

Billy Broussard, from Pecan Island who is on the WLF Commission indicated to me that there is no way Rock management will let those east lock gates open. Unless we'd get a storm with a ton of fresh water.

To much saltwater would flow into the canals that farmers are pumping from.

Also, Rockerfeller management indicated that they don't have the personnel to open and close the lock on an as needed basis.

If you fishing snapper. Looks like you'll have to go to the mermentau, or freshwater city. Or Rollover!!!

Thanks

Can you imagine how the parking situation at Rollover will be once it closes!!!!!? WOW, I will be running out of Dularge all summer for sure!

Just want to make sure I go this right. So the only way to get to the weirs at Rockefeller is to launch at rollover, get into the gulf, then came back into rockefeller from the gulf?

Or you can put in at the mermentau and do the same but someone told me its 20 miles from the mouth of the mermentau to the mouth of rockefeller. Thats a long run for some shrimp.
