I grew up in Baton Rouge. Our family went up to Morganza floodway farly often. I guess it was an easy [and cheep] place for the family to go spend the day fishing and picnic. We usually caught a few fish to bring home.
Dad bought a small outboard and then we could go up to Old River and rent a bateau. There was only 4 boat launches back then and just a handful of other camps. You might see 4 or 5 other boats out fishing on a normal weekend.
