If that is part of the drainage infrastructure of the area, you might be able to ask the county/parish what is allowable.
Honestly, I would get a good sprayer and spray the shite out of that brush with glyphosate. Be careful of local restrictions when spraying anything over a “navigable waterway” though. I would probably find someone who does vegetation control on pipelines to see what he can do.

Go to Home Depot parking lot with cash.
Better hurry.

Or buy an Echo SRM-410U (brush cutter).
I have used the hell out of mine at my land. Will cut most trees up to 1.5" diameter. I say most because it has a hard time with cedar and hickory when they are bigger than an inch in diameter.

You can actually rent a small excavator fairly cheap for a weekend. That is what I would do

When I was in college, a plant had a summer jobs programs that hired about a dozen of us. There was a big thicket behind the plant that they wanted to clear of all but big trees and turn into a picnic type area. We used brush hooks, machetes, axes, loppers, and other hand tools and got after it. I think the supervisors were shocked at how quickly we plowed through it.

I cleaned up on my lot when we bought it with these. But that bank looks like it might be steep.

Find someone with one of these attachments for an excavator. I do that on the side and something like that would only take a few hours. It’s good for pond dams , ditch banks, and limbs in the air . It will reach 12 feet.

You likely won’t find a rental company that will rent an excavator with a brush cutter or mulcher.
