Yes, you would have to launch at the public Launch in Freshwater City, which is a few miles south of Pecan Island. Acadiana Marina is still open, but is now private and I think you have to own a boat slip in order use the launch, but I'm not positive.

LaAngler, that would be pretty sweet if there was a Calcasieu Lake style estuary positioned in the place of Vermillion Bay. It would make things a lot easier on the Lafayette area residents, and you could fish saltwater year round with out a long drive.
