I am all for picking up after yourself. BUT,seems like the WLF is just being lazy. They could make money by writing citations.

WL&F have been fighting this this for years....To be able to access a refuge is a privilege and the WL&F should not have to waist money and babysit...LAZY and TRASHY people...

Im glad to see them close it and keep closing every place where people cant pick up after them selves

and If you fish these places and do clean up!! Good Job but you should pick up the others trash also..

I agree with Montauk , post an agent and write some tickets . At least make some money off the trashy people.
Before long there will be no public areas because of this lack of care by a select few.

You telling me you pick up others trash when you see it? If you were to pick up all the trash out there (and most of Louisiana's water bodies), you would have a full-time job. Write tickets is what I say, don't punish the majority for the actions of a few. Big Lake ain't the cleanest of places in the world

It would be the ethical thing to do ,to pick up all the trash around you . Unfortunately it wouldnt stop the litter problem. I'm sure the offenders would continue to litter with no penalty ,while others clean up the mess. Closings and fines are the only solution to this unfortunate problem .
As Montauk said ...The good always suffer for the bad!

That's the frickin problem! Sound like my kids! I didn't do it, why I got to pick it up? If everyone left with what they came with PLUS one extra piece of trash wouldn't have this problem, sure people shouldn't leave trash, but people shouldn't step over it & keep going

I was out there a couple of weeks ago.And DAM people
what the hell. If WLF would have been there that day
they could have made a fortune. Dead fish about 6 inch deep
and all the fly"s and smell to go with it.

WLF should catch a few of the culprits and as a penelty make them clean up the mess. The trash is one thing ,but the bycatch left rotting everywhere is one of the major issues .

Duck butter was talking about w picking up trash,not WLF. You won't stop trashy people from being trashy by closing an area. If they are ignorant enough to not read and follow rules tickets will remind them real quick.

WL&F doesn't have the resources to have people picking up trash. Give me an example of a Government run institution that makes sound decisions day in and day out? Their only choice was to shut it down b/c their lack of $$ and time to police people there and every other reserve.
