In partnership with the U.S. Forest Service, Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) biologists, recently deployed new artificial reefs in Kincaid Lake near Alexandria, Louisiana. A total of 240 Pond King “Honey Hole” artificial reefs were purchased and deployed as part of the ongoing Good Neighbor Authority Project (Good Neighbor Authority | US Forest Service (usda.gov). These artificial reefs are designed to be angler-friendly and will enhance recreational fishing by providing complex cover for fish.
