Doing my morning google map scan to kayak and found this place, anyone in the NWLA area ever been out there. Seems like a perfect day to hit the water.

It's a nice little lake....I read an article a few weeks ago where they just stocked that lake...with the warm water the fish should be biting pretty good today

it used to be a great lake, haven't fished on it in years. they had a dam failure that was fixed about 2 years ago (i'm old so and thats what i remember anyway. probably 5-600 acres. it was restocked with panfish and largemouth bass about this time last year, so should be some good fish by now.

If you go out there, take a few pictures if you get a chance. I have never heard of this Lake Ivan, pretty interesting.

I am gonna try and finally get my pirogue out to Bickham Dickson for a test paddle this afternoon if the damn wind will calm down.

Lived near it as a kid. It was drained for a while but it's back looking nice now. It'd be worth checking out.
