Louisiana Sportsmans Coalition

[boatdriver]

Can you please explain to me what the sole purpose of this coalition is for? I've read the goals and I like 1-4, but #5 seems to be the real reason for this coalition. Is that correct? Why is is wrong for a landownerto gate off his or her PRIVATE canals on THEIR OWNED property, navigable or not? Also, I am a lessee of a portion of land and we have a gate for our landing and our marsh.... Why is it wrong that we only want to keep our paying members or other area lease holders as being the only individuals allowed on our lease? We pay good money for these rights. I'm not here to bash your cause or coalition, but I would like you to explain this more to me. Maybe it will open a new outlook to me for this coalition.
