The LTAHA participates in the annual National Association of Sportsmen Caucus (NASC)
Summit held in Baton Rouge LA. |
The LTAHA offered attendees the opportunity to run a real Louisiana trap line near
Morganza La in the Atchafalaya flood plain. Participants were ferried to the
location by bus and transferred to multiple crew cab trucks where they rode the
line through sugar cane fields, crawfish ponds and cattle farms. |

A huge thanks goes out to Travis Williams for lining up the property and helping
set up the line. Without willing members like Travis our education program would
no longer exist. The LTAHA considers any opportunity to talk about trapping as
an educational opportunity and we don’t want to miss it. |
I would also like to thank Justin Ebarb for attending and helping set up the line.
His help and drive insured we got gear in the ground. |
On Thursday, November 21, Travis Williams, Justin Ebarb and myself had seven hours
to set a trap line that would be in the ground for all of twelve hours. We set
from one truck and made short order of the work at each set location. Running
a multi species line is hard enough without having a time crunch, but we managed
to pull it off. |
The group was shown how we use modern tools and old techniques to restrain our abundant
wildlife in Louisiana, helping ranchers, farmers and land owners. Participants
were able to see how we harvest raccoon, bobcat, coyote and beaver. We were
unable to secure an otter or nutria on the twelve our set. |
I would like to thank the Louisiana Fur Advisory Council and Tanya Krug Sturman for
the absolutely awesome booth. Our display of Louisiana fur and alligator was
well received. I would also like to thanks NTA President John Daniel, FTA President
Jason Wisniewski and the Linkheart Group for their support and faith in the
LTAHA to get the job done. |
