I've been working their for the past 2 years, but mostly deal with saltwater species. I'm about two years from completing my B.S. of Fisheries so maybe I'll get to revive the area in the future. I haven't heard much from the inland guys lately except sampling and such. The operation jump start that they started, to take fish from tourneys in the spillway and bring them to other areas of the state for brude stock replacement, has probably just removed many of the remaining fish from the area while allowing more areas for gar, redfish, and such. I wonder if the crawfish crop will hold up down their this season. I love me some bass fishing to, but I guess us south Louisiana boys will have to start migrating our fishing trips to Red River, False, Bruin, Concordia, Saline, and whatever other water bodies they have up their. At least in a closed lake system we have piece of mind that the fish can't leave out of the lake like these dang tidal areas.
Thank God its hunting season.
