Article in Advocate says LDWF released bass throughout the state including west side of the basin. Any idea why no releases on the east side??

Deeper water? Better survivability odds?

No idea

id imagine it has something to do with the habitat and survival rates.

Notable here is the effort on the western side of the Atchafalaya Basin where the release indicated 2,080,500 fry and 100,300 fingerlings were carried to Lake Fausse Point and Lake Dauterive. Henderson Lake received 50,300 fingerlings.

Somebody LOVES Fausse Point and Dauterive Lake.



quote:

False River got 6,000 fingerlings; Toledo Bend, 499,400 fingerlings; and, Bussey Brake, 40,100 fingerlings.

Some community lakes, like Gretna’s City Pond, were stocked with as few as 300 fingerlings.


Full list of where and how many were released:
