The 14-inch limit on bass in the spillway and surrounding area is failed science and any marine biologist should know this.
Why can’t a politician admit failure? The Department of Wildlife and Fisheries of Louisiana is a political entity and like all politicians, cannot admit they were wrong.
The tournament fishermen are the reason that this law has lasted on the books so long. I quit fishing in the spillway and Lake Verret area for bass because of this idiot law and that is the very reason the tournament fishermen wanted it in the first place. I personally don’t know anyone in favor of this law.
