Fishing

The Petite Amite is the perfect bayou to catch a few big ones.  Stop by the bait shop at the front of the neighborhood and find out why this area is called sportsman’s paradise!  Don’t forget to grab your Louisiana fishing license.

Our Favorite Fishing Holes

One of the best places to fish off the Diversion is the Petit Amite River, which runs behind the River House.  To get to it, take your boat out the slip and go back towards the Three Rivers Island entrance.  Take a left and go under the golf cart bridge.  Expect to catch bass, brim, and catfish!

During the early morning hours (6am-9pm), you can catch catfish right off The River House dock.  

If you venture into Lake Maurespas you can expect to catch the same freshwater fish as on the river, although people have been known to catch the occasional red snapper as the water becomes more brackish.
