It's legal but these looked like they had been there awhile. They were covered in slime.

i fish alot of jugs. it is my understanding that they have to be manned, just like a gill net.
i hate it when trashy people leave jugs out. it is my pet peave, and i fish up to several hundred at a time. i fish, then i pick them up. no good comes out of leaving them out. i'm also the guy who will pass some lead at you if you try to raise my juglines, so unless you want a confrintation, catch your own fish and leave mine alone. lol it always amazes me how a guy in a 80k$ boat will risk his life to steal a 3$ catfish. i thought jugs on refuge/wma was not legal. i know u ain't supposed to on marsh island. |

To my understanding they are illegal inside the impoundment but I could be wrong

So I can fish them inside streeters around the duck pond and surrounding area?

Yes hey all legal all over streeters. Only reason I picked up one was I wanted to see how long they had been there. Most were up on bank or tangled in grass.

It being legal to have jugs on the refuge is news to me. I have always been told that you can't even have them in possession while traveling on the refuge.
You can throw jugs in Streeter. I found in the Louisiana regulations that: Trotlines, juglines, trammel and gill nets and traps are prohibited on the Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge, and Marsh Island Refuge for sure. I haven't looked in the Federal Refuge regs yet but I would be willing to bet that they are the same. Last edited by elebouef; 07-10-2013 at 10:04 AM. |

your right. streeters only. no one seems to know exactly what streeters is either. they think that whole are is streeters. streeters is the canal that connects mermentau to lacassine bayou. you can jug in there ONLE bc its a state waterway. every side canal is a refuge waterway. its ALL in the pamphlet

The ones who were fishing the Duck Pond with jugs a few weeks ago, think they know everything. When told that they were in violation one wanted to argue with the guy across from them, so he let them be, but they didn't get caught.

Ok found what I was looking for. Jugline fishing is allowed on Sabine but not on Lacassine.
"Fishing is permitted with rod and reel or pole and line only on Cameron Prairie and Lacassine NWR’s. Sabine NWR permits jug fishing in designated areas in addition to rod and reel and pole and line fishing. See refuge specific regulations." You can read all about in here. It plainly states it on the first page. http://www.fws.gov/southeast/pubs/SWLAcomplex_Fish.pdf The one who were jugging in the Duck Pond can also read this, but they were told about it already |

The jugs in the one mile canal are still there. Would bet they are not coming back for them. They have to be over 20.

I don't know exactly what you call the one mile canal but I know from the start of Streeters at Mermentau to Lacassine Lake there was only 1 on the way in and when I passed back it was gone, but I left one somewhere in the lake, that I couldn't find. Maybe the boat that passed before I got back to the mouth of Streeters at Lacassine might of needed more than me.

Looking for a cheap but affective weight/anchor solution not running more than 10 if that changes how I should weight them
