The bill amends Louisiana's regulations regarding frogging at night, specifically addressing the use of firearms during this activity. The current law prohibits individuals from carrying or possessing shotguns, rifles, or firearms while taking or hunting frogs at night. This restriction has been removed, allowing individuals to carry firearms while engaging in nighttime frogging.

Additionally, the bill maintains the allowance for using jacklights and mechanical devices known as frog catchers, as well as devices that puncture the skin, such as gigs and spears, for the purpose of taking frogs. The changes aim to provide more flexibility for individuals participating in nighttime frogging activities while ensuring that the methods of taking frogs remain regulated.
