well the launch hasnt changed much at all from the picture below and it wont get cleaned up anytime soon without your help.

i called the town of golden meadow to see when or if there were any plans about cleaning up the boat launch and they said it was a grey area between the town of golden meadow and lafourche parish as to who is responsible for the launch.

the town of golden meadow takes care of the garbage collection and policing at the launch but its actually maintained by the parish so lafourche parish is responsible for cleaning up the storm related debris at the launch and adjoining waterway to it.

now that the large majority of storm debris in the area is cleaned up and put out for pickup they suggested its imperative that to ensure the launch cleanup isnt forgotten about and it gets done sooner rather then later, people need to call the lafourche parish office and report that the launch is in serious need of a cleanup.

if they dont get a bunch of calls about it then it could take a very long time or worse a serious accident for anyone to get around to it. please call and ask they clean up this launch to ensure it gets done and hopefully soon so it can be fully opened and safe to use again, thank you.

they are only open monday thru thursdays but the numbers i have for lafourche parish goverment is:

Thibodaux Government Complex
Phone: (985) 446-8427

Galliano Government Complex
Phone: (985) 632-4666

.

its not easy to get the parish to do cleanup in areas like this and it often takes several phone calls from lots of people to get them to do it.

this is why i am making a serious request for others who may care about helping fellow fishermen to take a moment out of thier day to call and ask for this launch to get cleaned up soon.

no one is asking for private property to be cleaned up here, this is a parish owned boat launch on parish or state owned land that is free to use by the public.

launch

problem is that lafourche parish could not care less about the launches, and this is bad buisness, because the parish looses out on people coming down to fish. it actually hurts the buisness places who rely on tourism. and it is the parishes elected duty to look out for things like this. it takes forever to get something done in lafourche when it partains to sportsman, look at the mess they made with cloverly, cloverly owners tried dealing with the parish and got tired of waiting. luckily someone 'NOT' with the parish went and clean the debris from the backdown with a backhoe so we could use the launch. i wont mention any names cause they will probably prosicute him.

Community workers

There are a lot of work there for both the town and parish sheriff office to send those that need hours for COMMUNITY SERVICE. Put them to work or GIVE out FREE FOOD STAMPS and the slip will be crystal clear

prosicute him

sad but true that they might want to arrest him , after all he didnt have a permit to do it and or ticket him for littering since he drug it out of the water onto land so thats littering lol.

all clear now

went today and its for the most part all clear now, thank him for me and everyone else who uses the launch, god bless him!

at least now the launch is 80% fully usable and the tides will take care of the rest of it.

not good

went same place same spot as you only one day later and scratched, had around a dozen fish by the time i called it a day and went watch the saints lose again.

i think the fish just hadnt regrouped from the day before, if i knew the area better i might have done good by trying other areas around the lake but being my first day there i was more concentrating on learning to recognize the area.

billiot

yea the mouth is a great spot but some times you think that you see no birds but they are hard to spot some times, you should have also tried venturing left across the lake you will find some more birds diving that you cant see from the mouth, if there all small then move on to the next. glad you found it, youll learn it and it gives you another option.
