Before you go

A Louisiana fishing licence runs $17 a year for residents. LDWF sets the rules and is the one that counts.

What you may keep

LDWF sets a size or bag limit for 52 species here — 51 with at least one area open today. Where a species is open in one water and closed in another, its own page says which. Each page carries the agency's own figures, the date they were read, and what is still unsettled.
