Default RE: why flounder in 4 in of water..

that is to say if i don't want anyone fishing here it is a no fishing area, but that is not the point nor is any ones boat going be confiscated here; I am only asking that the guys fish a little deeper we all have a right to these waters..but I have seen so much damage done to the waters of this area in thethirtyfive years I have lived here why perpetuate it by runninig over the same ground..watching your catch go down and your rights to fish depleted you are part of the problem ..let's get to the cure..these bayous are so precious to the extended marine environment..It is the nesting area for so many species..things are better now why turn them back or stall them with careless acts..hiding behind a keyboard really....It is another communication point worth a look... maybe not next year or the year after you will see better results..All I see here are your results ..they suck to what was available fifty years ago...I heard the guys talking below and they had been out for six hours and nailed two fish..flounders I hope but I am guessing a lot of lizard fish met their end also..I fish here and catch fish here knowing that they are probably high in mercury and lead levels..now bottom trawlers destroy huge amounts of fish I used to shrimp in this bay I know..the bottomhas been wrecked and disrupted the flow of life in this bay..when I first arrived here you could catch spanish and king mackeral off the docks herein this bayouyou have to go to the beach to do that now or near the pass..It is strange because the reason for this bayhou ever to have that privelege was the drwedging of the channell of what is now called white island..in 1940 it was all just a sand bank with no real channel..and when the channel was dredged the pelagic fish entered and fed on the rich stocks of alweyves and menhadden, galss minnow and the like there was no housing in navy point and fishing was awesome...so just keep on asking about rules because the only rule it seems tht you live by is what is comfortable for you..I got no love for you ..you are hungry and without a need for a new crop ..enjoy it you earned it..no laws..no rights needed the truth will set you free ..you have no respect ...for regeneration..you are only on a hungry ego trip..hope you like looking at empty mud it will only get bigger every year if you do..
