Another mile there is a small tank battery on the left, keep going north. There is a tree with branches sticking up laying in the middle of the canal about 1/2 mile north of the tank battery. Go on either side of it. There is a canal to the left, do not take. Bear to the left side of the canal and there is a canal to the left with a sign saying Lacassine Duck pond restricted area, permit hunting only. Turn left at the sign. You can run down the canal keeping 20-30 yds north of the south tree line. With your Q beam you will see the sign to the #1 blind, keep going straight and you will see the sign for blind #2 about 1/4 mile west. Using a trolling motor or push pole turn north into the pond and go about 100 yds to the post for blind #2. If you miss the turn to the duck pond the canal dead ends, turn around and idle back. The canals are deep enough to run in. If you are looking for the anal entrance the water gets shallow along the edge of the river. The canal entrance is not marked and there are some trees the partially block seeing it. It is difficult to see at night if you haven't been a couple of times, particularly at night. Gerald is correct in making a trip to the landing and finding the canal in the day time before trying to find it at night. Go to Google Earth or Google map and you can see the canals really well. Off of Google Earth you can get the Lat/Lon of the entrance and enter into a GPS. That should get you close but not exact.
