The bill amends Louisiana's existing law regarding the taking of frogs at night, specifically addressing the use of firearms during this activity. The revised legal language allows individuals to carry and possess shotguns, rifles, or firearms while hunting frogs at night, which was previously prohibited. This change aims to provide more flexibility for hunters engaging in nighttime frogging.

Additionally, the bill maintains the provisions that permit the use of jacklights, visible lights, 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. Overall, the legislation seeks to modernize and enhance the regulations surrounding nighttime frogging in Louisiana.
