Always have driven over it but never fished it. Buddy and I want to go.

Where do you put in?
Where is the best places to fish?
Is it safe to run? (Looks like stumps everywhere)

Run up(nort) that main bayou(Bijou?) and look for willow clumps on your left. Pitch jigs or craworms to base. If fish are active, use spinnerbaits pitched up in there. If that doesn't work, pitch hyancinth clumps with soft plastics and very light weight, as the fish are right under them at the top.

Really, the possibilities are endless.

As far as where to launch, there's the public launch in Butte Larose. Then in Henderson there's Kerns, Mcgee's, Atchafalaya Basin Landing. Just to name a few.

Best places to fish? That you'll have to figure out yourself. Plenty of good fishing in there.

Safe to run? That I don't know. I'm always there in a

ETA: I've been fishing North of I-10 in Pelba and the eastern side of Bigeaux a lot lately. That barely scratches the surface.

Go into Henderson and ask around for Judd Dauphinet. That guy can tell you all you need to know. Just don't piss him off
