I wish they would patrol and enforce the 250 foot zone around the GB weirs.

I wonder what the fine is now for fishing within 250 feet of the Grand Bayou weir. Back 10 + years ago the fine was $ 225 per person in the boat.

This is pic of the West Cove boat launch area back on May 8 at about 6:30 AM.
