The LDWF, or Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, is the state agency that has been commissioned to both preserve and monitor the natural resources of the state, while at the same time enhancing the public’s knowledge and access to these resources. In a state as naturally diverse as Louisiana, this mission takes on many facets. From aquatic weed control, sport fish tagging programs, community outreach, hatchery enhancement and the continual monitoring of the environment, the LDWF has many departments filled with dedicated personnel who share the same goal: to continue the bountiful harvest from Louisiana’s land and waters, while preserving this same ability and tradition for all generations to come.
