We're launching in the haven in Shreveport. Should we go south or north? New (to us) boat and we've never fished the area. Any help would be awesome.

Kinda late- specially for a Friday. I've never fished up nawth but assume you know to hit the oxbows.


Here's a link I keep to monitor the River stages.

Good luck and don't sweat it. Too many times I set out worrying about where to go and ended up getting on them.

Did not go well. Lol. Sheered a bolt off the trolling motor so we were at the winds mercy and basically just floated the east side of the river. Caught one bass. Heh. But it was nice to at least get out on the river.

A buddy and I used to fish from the banks where the Haven channel opens up to the river. Tore up the catfish at that dropoff. We would see bass fishermen go up the canal every day catching nice bass up in there. If you don't want to fish the channel then go south

That's good to know. My dad loves to catfish so I'll pass that along to him also.
