Lagniappe
Newsletters
The Lagniappe fisheries newsletter focuses on two objectives,
bringing the latest fisheries and fisheries related research
to the public and printing all commercial and recreational
fisheries rules changes as they occur. As the pace of fisheries
science speeds up, the need for informed input by fisheries
users into management systems has increased. Lagniappe facilitates
that input by translating the latest fisheries research
results from technical language into conversational language,
without losing accuracy. The rapid pace of change is illustrated
by the increasing complexity of fisheries resource harvesting
rules and the rapidity with which they change. With its
monthly printing schedule, Lagniappe is committed to announcing
all rules changes that affect Louisianans, both in saltwater
and freshwater.
