Lake Bistineau

Also making the Bassmaster list at No. 27 this 15,550-acre fishery offers cypress trees aplenty along with a continuing battle with salvinia. It’s also a home-away-from-home for folks like veteran tournament angler Jeff Pate who has spent at least 40 years in its every nook and cranny.

“That’s the place I cut my teeth bass fishing. Both my mom and dad worked, so they would drop me off in the morning at the Shady Landing at our boat. We had a 1970 Tidecraft with stick steering and a 40 horsepower motor,” Pate said. “I would spend the entire day on the lake throughout the summer and probably even skipped school some.”

Pate was surprised at the lake’s Bassmaster ranking.

“With all the great lakes out there — Guntersville, Falcon — I wouldn’t have thought Bistineau would have even been on the list. It has changed a whole lot over the years.”

Caney Lake

This 5,000-acre lake holds the state record for a largemouth bass thanks to a 15.97-pound fish caught in 1994 by Greg Wiggins. Even though it was almost unfishable for several years due to hydrilla, it is making a strong comeback after carp laid waste to the grass.

“If you want really quality bass, it’s hard to beat Caney Lake,” said veteran outdoor writer Glynn Harris. “At one time, it had seven of the top 10 bass in the state and there was a 13-pounder caught this year.”

Added Bobby Phillips, who fishes Caney regularly: “This lake has really come back since the carp are gone. They are catching a lot of big bass on it at night. There are a lot of white perch being caught in 20 feet of water.”

Black Lake

Offering approximately 7,000 acres of quality fishing, Black Lake in Campti has been a favorite haunt of anglers since the 1930s.

“It’s a cypress tree lake offering multiple spots for bass to hide in the root system and ambush their prey,” said Sid Havard, who calls the fishery his favorite. “They can attack shad, bream and bullfrogs or whatever happens by. I’ve always heard people say that bass are like a tiger in the bush — they dictate what happens. The lake also has multiple depths. It has deep holes and shallow areas along with ledges and grass.”

Grand Bayou

Small in size (2,700 acres), but big in production, Grand Bayou has already produced 20 bass weighing in the double digits this year, according to lake expert Jerry Hester of Martin.

“There’s not a lot of structure on the lake. It’s an open water reservoir, and the average depth is five feet with some 25 foot pockets by the spillway,” said Hester, who has fished it since it opened in 1996. “As far as a trophy lake, I don’t think you can do better than Grand Bayou in North Louisiana.”
