Lacassine
 

I know my way around the pool, but I do not know the ponds by name like some people. Anyone care to label this the best they can?

Could you do that for the east side?

I'll see what I can find tomorrow.

Bump

ill lable them for you after when I get off of school, I know the names of pretty much all of them

Thanks. I done a quick search and didn't find anything to the east. Never fished that side.

No problem, I've ran the east side before but couldn't tell anyone where I was if even if I wanted to, curious to the names though.

Duffy, good to see that you're as confused as I am out there!

im having a hard time findng out how to lable on google maps then screenshot off a computer, until then ill do the best i can, what hes calling little north is the north and whats hes calling north is the little north, the size doesnt match up but thats what everyone ive ever fished around called them, what he has as south is lil egypt, and "twin sisters" are actually the south flats, but i know people who call them twin sisters as well, blue and black grove are right , to the north of "twin sisters" and the south of "little north is of course lone cypress, and to the east of it are the duck pens, directly South South
East of the South launch is the target area, and the east side is the east side, consisting of the east canal and east flats, if someone can help learn to lable things on a map i could lable them onto it for smaller area names

what hes calling the "little north" is the north and what hes calling the "north" is the little north, the size doesnt match up but people have been calling them that for years, idk why, blue and black grove are right, what hes calling "south" is lil egypt and "twin sisters" are the south flats but i know people that call them "twin sisters" as well, the the north of "twin sisters" and south of "lil north" is of course lone cypress, and to the east of it are called the duck pens, directly South South East is the target area and the east side is the east side, no special names, if someone can help me learn to lable a map on here i can lable some smaller named areas

I've always heard the north lakes called opposite of what I said as well. I named them from the refuge map and not what I was taught lol. Basically, if someone says North or little North, we will never know which they're referring to. I'll see if I can get the map labeled per your description and post up. Thanks!

I may be taking my wife there to catch some bream.

I have never fished there. What general area would anyone suggest?

I heard it's a 40 HP max in Lacassine.

This might sound dumb, but .......

Is there someone on duty, or something, that stops people from going there with a 50HP, 60HP, 70HP or whatever ??

GW do make their rounds. Not sure what the fine would be but I'm sure it would and should be steep for a blatant offense as such.

If the idea sounds dumb to you then maybe you should listen to that little voice of reason.:spineyes:

This is the way that I know it.

Thanks B.Y.

also the duck pens are northeast of twin sisters and east south east of lone cypress, and the target area is a little more north east, but this is base and will work

bass yakrs is pretty accurate , but what yall are calling south pond ive always called lil Egypt which is what a lot of the old timers called it

Ive heard it called that aswell... everyone i fish with calls it south pond tho...

Anyone know where the dynamite hole is?

Never heard of it Duffy

probably the target area.

Yeah. I have been told that they used to do some kind of target practice with the planes from Chennault out there a long time ago. Whether that's a fact or not, I don't know.

Actually you missed my point. I've never been to Lacassine. I was simply wondering how do they enforce the 40 HP max rule. :rolleyes:

Yea, it's fact. Back in the 70's there were still one or two targets (steel) sticking up out of the water.

That's interesting.
Regarding Duffy.yyz's post, would they have had any reason to use dynamite out there?

I was noticing Friday that the Little North Pond had some deeper-than-average areas than I found in the South Pond.
And if you're traveling the main canal from the North Ponds down to the South Pond (I kinda like "Lil Egypt"), there's a kinda square area on the left that looks fairly deep, though I didn't stop and fish it. Maybe it was an old oil platform or something?

No sure about the use of dynamite out there, unless it was training exercises, but since the area was used for aerial target practice I'm sure bombs were dropped. I remember those two remaining targets sticking up at least 4 feet out of the water.

Anybody have any new or old pics of the Pool during a drawdown or a drought?

They should close the place for a couple years and do more bomb practice....clean some more deeper holes out

I know where the hole is

Best I could do for historical data

He fell overboard into it! :)

Thanks, Marshrunner757.
Did you get my pm?

Guess I didn't. What's up?

Check out the difference between 05 and 07 at the farthest SW corner

There was so much more open water in the 90's.

that can be deceiving if the pics were from different times of the year, etc. Also, wasn't Rita in '05?

And deeper. They used to hold more water in there back then.

Yeah I was thinking that too, did the pool get any salt water intrusion?

I would think it did, but I don't know for sure.

There was salt water intrusion from Rita. Caught plenty of crabs in the pool and Bell City drainage ditch.

There have been reds in the pool, from what I have heard.
