Signs of life are returning along Bayou Barataria. Crab boats laden with traps navigate the waterway, careful to avoid unseen debris. Workboats supporting offshore oilrigs also tread lightly through the minefield. Nowhere but nowhere are there signs of recreational fisher casting for their favorite catch. Partly this is because the marina at Jean Lafitte Harbor is barely open seven months after Hurricane Ida dealt its near-fatal blow.
Jefferson Parish Economic Development Commission (JEDCO), in partnership with the Town of Jean Lafitte, is hosting “Focus on our Fishermen”. The evening event on Tuesday, November 9th at the Jean Lafitte Civic Center will provide fishermen and fisheries-related businesses access to tools and resources that can guide to recovery from Hurricane Ida.
