Response I got from Patrick Banks concerning oyster dredging.


Mr. Dupuis:
I met this morning with my bosses, including Assistant Secretary Randy
Pausina, about your concerns. *We are continuing to review biological
and harvest data, and are assessing the fisheries resources in the lake.
Following the completion of that review, we will provide more
information to you. *We appreciate your concern for and interest in our
renewable natural resources in Calcasieu Lake.

Mr Banks
Please do something about the oyster dredging on Big Lake. It is going *
to ruin our fishing habitats. They are everywhere!
Thank you

I hope they don't wait until after April 30 [season closes] to figure out that the Reefs have been over fished and the fisheries have been damaged.

I called in a gill net slap full of dead catfish last year and they never even came to verify that there was one there!

After a couple of days of waiting, the 40 merc and some rope handled up on that gill net mighty fine!

Pisses me off that they will sit at the launch and write tickets but do nothing about legitimate concerns!

A natural resource is a renewable resource if it is replaced by natural processes at a rate comparable or faster than its rate of consumption by humans.

The oyster reefs are not fn renewable if you wipe em out with mechanical oyster boats.
