Not from that area, but I would suggest Tickfaw and Amite rivers.

First of all, welcome to the forum......Jig Rig fishes that area a lot so maybe he will chime in with another area.....

Hey Charles welcome to the forum. I'd suggest starting on the Ticfaw river. Try to learn the area. There are plenty of sacs there just have to work a little. I would also suggest using the search tab at the to right corner of the page. The words "Ticfaw" or "tchefuncte" will probably be a good start. Reading a few old post taught me a bunch.

Hey Charles,

Sack hit it. Read the old post for the time of year your fishing. The tic has plenty fish. As all the north shore rivers. HTH

Good luck in your quest. That's all I can do since I live north of Alexandria. LOL.

Welcome to the forum Charles. The info posted is good from some of the North Shores best.

Thanks for your suggestions. I will try those rivers when I get there!

Thanks anyway. At present I also live north of Alexandria--near Toledo Bend.
