The superintendent received unanimous support to approve a request by the City of Patterson for Redfish ban (Continued from Page 1) in here not to get their hopes up," Mialjevich said. "Even if it would have gone through, the Legislature could look at it and vote to keep it the same. But the Legislature could also reverse it too. I plan on filing a minority report." The DWF report, given to commission members Jan. 30, shows Louisiana's redfish numbers far exceeding the minimum standards set by the federal Gulf of Mexico Fisheries Management Council.

But Schneider questioned the findings and said the commission should wait rather than make a mistake that could deplete the species. Red drum, more commonly known as redfish in Louisiana, became a popular restaurant species after Ca-jun chef Paul Prudhomme sparked the "blackened redfish" craze. The dish became so popular in the 1980s that authorities eventually shut down the commercial harvest for fear the species would be fished out. an end another local Mardi Gras season.
