So I finally finished my book. I sent public record request to every parish school board, levee board, waterway commission and even a few port authority's in Louisiana. I requested all information about land they own that was either leased to the public or open for public use. I put all that information together in a easy to understand format. After much research I came to the the conclusion that nothing like this has ever been done before in Louisiana. No matter what you are trying to hunt in Louisiana you will find a place to do it in this book.

That is awesome I always wondered about this and it is so hard to get any information on the properties. This was probably some time consuming issues and this should be a interesting read. I am from south west Louisiana as well and I remember you from your dad and cousins from in the late 70s early 80s. I will be contacting you soon to get a version of this book. Have A Great Day Jason.

Congrats on the publication Jason. I am sure this took an extensive amount of time and energy to compose. Like many, maybe even most, on this site, I began chasing the fish and game that Louisiana has to offer on public land. Were it not for those opportunities, I may not be the addict that I am today. The border between private and public land has become so unclear, and this book will help the sportsman that don't have access to private land. Kuddos to you sir!

I have been getting a few questions so I thought I would make post to answer a few. Yes I make a few dollars of the sale of each book but just know I have a long way to go before I even break even. With this pot I want to talk about why I wrote the book. First I have a few questions for everyone.

#1 Did you know that school board 16th sections in Plaquemines Parish, Nat****oches Parish, Oua****a Parish, LaSalle Parish and St. Martin parish are all open to the public for hunting and fishing? Thousands of acres of prime hunting and fishing open to the public. Hardly anyone knows this, much less where its all at.

#2 Did you know that the school boards in West Feliciana Parish, Iberville Parish, St. Bernard Parish and St. John the Baptist Parish will not give you a straight answer on what there 16th section lands are used for? The one thing they will say is they do not lease them. Once again this is some prime hunting and fishing land owned by the public. Does anyone reading this think there is thousands of acres of prime hunting and fishing land sitting around and no one is using it?

Also know that this information may be public but after driving all over the state and spending hundreds on mailing certified letters for record request it was not easy to come by.

I'm 42 years old and for as long as I can remember the public in Louisiana has been fighting for our water access rights. Well I'm trying to inform the public of some of the access they already have and didn't know it. Also there right to bid on public land that comes up for lease.

You can push the issue on the parishes that won't say .that information is something that by law is public record.

I reckon this could cause some commotion as far as seeing how much school board leases go for and may expose some of the cheaper leases that are still out there? Just pondering
