I think that snapper were here along time before there were platforms so that can't be the argument to keep them, but also I think that they thrive off a platform by the ecosystem an established platform has. I know that is a contradictory statement, but what do our opinions matter in politics involved with this anyway. |

i mean at least let people know when one is being blown and let them pick up the dead fish. all they are doing is feeding the damn sharks and we dont need anymore sharks.

let a game warden see you throw one back that is dead he will write you up for want and waste, but it is ok for govt.

I know of no vessel that draws 50' of water. Why doesn't the Feds allow us to P&A the wells and then "reef in place" ever one of these in water depths >80'. We can the piles 50' below the water surface and have a hell of a reef for a long time.

There are a few places like that around. Don't know how they got that way. May have been some of the storms.

Our company still has work on the books to recover platforms in water blown over from Katrina and Rita, so yes I know they are out there. My question is, why can't we just cut the legs 40-50' below the water line and put a floating bouy marking it as a reef. The trawlers would see the bouy and stay clear, so no damage to their nets, the vessels would see the aid to navigation and stay clear, and the eco system would continue to thrive.

Too simple. I know of some rigs and wrecks that are 200 ft below the water and unmarked. They are on my electronics though.

Stop the madness and destruction of habitat.
Sent 100 emails today including my member of Congress and signed both petitions. https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/pet...ogram/FLDPVfZD http://www.change.org/petitions/stop...t-of-idle-iron Why so few people signing these petitions? Are we just a bunch of website whiners? DID YOU DO YOUR PART TO STOP THIS STUPIDITY? IF NOT, GET AFTER IT. MAKE SOME NOISE. NO HABITAT = NO FISH . Last edited by skeeter77346; 03-04-2013 at 07:34 PM.

Me too Capt - but around 170 ft, knife Jigs, full limits in 30 mins. Just hate to see the established habitat totally destroyed with ZERO regard for the longer term implications.
