Thoughts on CCA meeting tonight on state of Calcasieu fishery

[jlincecum]

as for the weirs...Yes they have their very old plan in place that was working before our area was changed by forces of nature beyond anyones control. To think that conditions will return to what they were 10-15 years ago is like thinking you're going to win the powerball every week. They know the conditions and they know what is needed to improve, FRESH water. Yet they seem very content to sit there and collect a check holding the bandage on the wound and complaining about how much blood is being lost. If our state and local agencies and 32 subcommittees are so worried about Cameron parish turning into the next Lake Pontchartrain then why is their only only plan to wait for rain. They are worried about the need for water being so great that it will drop the ICW to a level that will impede navigation but are satisfied with just waiting for rain.
