My boat is 8'4" wide. When I go thru the boat bay, I have about 6 or 8 inches on each side.
Only time it is bad is when water is pouring in or out.

Thanks Ray...

I see you own a Cobia, did you buy it from the "mate" in Beaumont ???

That is a great dealership... After my purchase, I have sent several folks their way for boats, trailers, and re-powering...

East cove is managed by Cameron Prairie NWR. The manager is Glen Harris. He has helped me on other occasions and answered several questions for me.
His e-mail address is : glen_harris@fws.gov

I picked up a pamphlet a couple of days ago for: "Southwest Louisiana National Wildlife Refuge Complex Fishing regulations....Cameron Prairie, Lacassine and Sabine" Dated: March 2008

Summary....

Cast net must be less than 8.5 foot radius.

No mention of needing a Permit to castnet.

Shrimp limit....5 gallons during season. 1 gallon out of season for bait.

Hours.....all activities start at Sunrise and close at Sunset. You can enter the area 1 hour before sunrise and stay until 1 hour after sunset. I guess this is for the hunter in areas that are open to hunting.

This pamphlet does not cover Hunting regulations........So if a Duck flys over just after it gets light, can you legally shoot it? I am not a Duck hunter. What about a Deer hunter on Cameron Prairie property, can he shoot a Deer that comes by just after it gets light?

I passed by Camerion Prairie Headquarters last week, but did not think about stopping to talk about these regulations.....sure wish I had to find out some answers to our questions.

It is much more cost effective for them to issue tickets.
