Darbonne Lake?
Hello, just happened across this forum and thought, how lucky can I get?!?! My husband and I live only 15 minutes from Darbonne Lake and have gone fishing there as much as possible in the last month. We just bought a boat last year and have just now had a chance to use it. We are about an hour from Caney, but with the slot limit, it is not much fun....I like to keep and eat fish as much as I like to catch them! Anyway, my husband bass fishes, which usually leaves me trailing along for whatever will bite my hook. Question is, are the bream and or white perch biting at Darbonne and if so, what are they biting and at what depth and/or area. We typically go to Stowe Creek or Corney Creek, he bass fishes the banks while I fish for bream (catching an occassional catfish along the way!) The bream have all been small, no keepers, but still keeps me busy. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

My dad, who has now passed away, got my hooked onto fishing as a little girl. He loved to white perch fish and would catch huge perch at a place called Turkey Creek here. I went with him a few years before he passed away and remember having so much fun catching them and filling up an ice chest pretty fast! I grew up fishing Toledo Bend, he used to own a camp there and we would go at least once a month. Have not been there in years though. Have not been to Poverty Point yet either. My husband went red fishing in Leeville, La several months back and is supposed to be taking me back with him this Fall, he had a blast. Never heard of Truman Lake.
Just noticed you like to duck hunt, I am smack in the middle if Duck Commander/Duck Dynasty country! :O)

I am not all that great at white perch fishing, but there are lots of folks on the Louisiana board that can assist you.

Welcome from Florida from another transplant of Louisiana. Make sure you drop in on the La. board and ask in there. Probably get a ton more direct info.
