Backing Drum Cap

Ensure a healthy future for an iconic fishery. When fishermen think about redfish, they think about Louisiana. The vast marshes and incredible culture provide an idyllic setting for catching the fish of a lifetime. Unfortunately, Louisiana’s redfish are now faced with environmental and management challenges. The numbers of adult redfish have fallen to levels not seen in decades and anglers are harvesting redfish at an unsustainable rate. The time is now to conserve this incredible resource.

All proceeds from Backing Drum hat sales will go directly towards campaign efforts for Louisiana Red Drum management.

On July 6^th, the Louisiana fishing guide community flooded the LWF Commission meeting and let the state know that the recommended reductions are not enough to ensure the stability of their businesses.  To the surprise of many, the LWF Commission did something amazing: they listened and moved to protect the resource. A Notice of Intent was issued for an 18-24” slot with no take for bull redfish and no guide limit. While this proposal is outstanding in theory, this meeting proposal is only the first step.  This NOI has to be approved by the state legislature – and that’s where we need your voice to keep the ball rolling. Head to ASGA’s Louisiana Redfish Hub to sign the Official Letter in support of this proactive management action.
