A popular spot

The Black Bayou Lake is a popular fishing spot.  Over 5,000 fishing boats are launched on the lake each year in pursuit of largemouth bass, crappie, sunfish and catfish. 

An improved boat launch ramp provides access to the tree-studded, 1,600 acre lake.  A $2 fee is required to launch any boat on the lake including canoes.  Motors are limited to a maximum of 50hp. Lake is open daylight to dusk.
