I'm looking to do some fishing on the false River. I fish this lake at least twice didn't catch anything, but one Catfish.

 

I just finished doing the research on False River and found that it was a very popular Lake at one time, but has some issues that are now being corrected.

 

Everything I've read as far as reports is two to the three years old and I found nothing current about false River. Can anyone give me any information as to what will be the best way to bass fish false River?

 

Are there any water hazards because as I looked at the oxbow lake. It seems to be 40 to 60 feet deep, but the last time I fished it even in the middle. My shallow water alarm went off and it was set to 6 ft. so are there hazards in the middle of the lake or is it possibly grass growing that high. Any advice on False River will be greatly appreciated.thanks in advance.

I haven't been out there in years, but false river is pretty wide open to run but the fishing flat out sucks for the most part.

False River is usually a pretty good night fishing lake. It has a lot of deep boat docks with lights under them. Oh, and normally the daytime boat traffic is so bad that you have not option but to fish at night.

I gave that place up a long time ago. Had better luck at night when I fished it. Good luck.

False River has declined. Best bet is to go to Old River, in Morganza, just a few miles away. It also is an oxbow lake like False River.
