First the nature trail well they wanted a tourist spot with no shrimpers

Second north line that's for crabbers they said

Third hog island shrimpers are trashing it up

Then all road sides

The blue crab

So people got boats to shrimp in refuge now no boat parking in the opening by bridge ( where shrimp are)

So now the weirs one week before they meet on shrimping season

And Smalls yes I do know what shrimp eat appreciate the effort there as well as your attempt to belittle everyone having a discussion on this civilly yet you are not even aware of what they are opening or closing this goes a lot deeper than making sure we have ducks for the hunters it's about total management of the ecosystem not just one group of animal in ecosystem
