Fly over lacassine refuge and tell me that's a healthy marsh that is great habitat. It was 5 years ago, now it is done for.

Can we get off the ducks already! That is not the purpose of the weirs. Marsh management, not duck management. Waltrip has said it before, the east side is the life blood of the lake. You know why? That marsh. If it becomes open water, no more nursery, no more bait fish, no more crabs, no more shrimp, and a lot more *****ing.
