I don't think that the org is trying to gain rights over the land. It's just the water that flows and is navigable that fishermen want access too. The land owners around Vermilion Parish want us to stay out of their oil field canals, but don't mind asking WL&F to spray their bad water plants. How can public money be allowed to keep a private canal clear?

There are maps available showing waters claimed by the state and it's very little of the areas we fish in the Southern part of the state. If you fish in an oil field canal chances are that it's considered private by the present law and you are subject to being run out.
