Better to enter West Cove from southeast side if it is your first time. When entering from northeast side, the water can get pretty shallow especially on the north side of the entrance, especially in low tide. Stay in the middle if you are taking the northeast entrance.
You can find Black Lake by going down Black Lake Bayou off of the ship channel, continuing past Spicer's in Hackberry, and just keep following the bayou. You might want to use Google Maps on your IPhone, but it is pretty simple. You can also get to Black Lake from the Salt Ditch off of the Intercoastal waterway. It just depends upon which direction you are coming from. Be careful in Blake Lake as there are a lot of low spots and under water structure.
