I was raised mostly in Illinois, but all of my Dad's family lives in Louisiana, scattered from Starks to Lafayette. I've done some hunting and trapping in Calcasieu, Jeff Davis, and Acadia parish in the past when I lived down there. Nowadays, i'm lucky toget in a quick hunt when i am down to chase chickens for Mardi Gras.

I heard that the state islimiting access to the marshlands roughly south of hwy 14, even for people with land and leases down there. Maybe its just post-hurricanne rumors, but i would like tohear what's happened to the hunting down toward the coast since the hurricanne. It's bad enough that it wiped out Holly Beach.....
