The Red River:
The Red River, being the new kid on the block, offers some of the best fishing to anglers looking for some large numbers of fish. Bass, Crappie, Big Bream, and huge Catfish are the most sought after fish from the river. The many log jams in the numerous oxbow lakes off the main river offer some of the best bassin around. As one angler noted " This ain't bass fishing, this is power fishing". Spinner baits, creature type baits, and jig-n-craws are the baits of choice on the Mighty Red.
Caddo Lake:
Caddo Lake is a fascinating, mysterious natural lake of the swamps. The Big lake section has wide expanses of broad water dotted at the eastern end with oil wells. The contrasting mossy Break or Eagles Nest is where the world disappears behind walls of moss-bearded cypress trees to leave the fisherman feeling he is in a land of a million years ago. Caddo Lake with it's cypress trees and lily pad fields create a perfect habitat for the Florida strain of bass. Caddo has numerous 6-11 pound bass caught year-round. This lake has excellent top-water and jig fishing.
Lake Bistineau:
With it's dense cypress breaks and many sloughs and creeks, Lake Bistineau offers a person excellent fishing and breath-taking scenery. Lake Bistineau dates back almost 200 years. It began in 1800 when several thousand acres of land were flooded due to a gigantic log jam in the Red River. In 1935 a permanent dam was built across Loggy Bayou, creating the present-day Lake Bistineau. Since 1998, yearly stockings of Florida Bass have been introduced to Bistineau thanks to the BASS LIFE ORGANIZATION. The Cypress trees on Bistineau provide prefect habitat for the Florida Bass. Bistineau offers excellent jig and worm fishing and heart stopping top water fishing.
