The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries is advising Grassy Lake Wildlife Management Area (WMA) users that the Fool’s Bay low water crossing on North Bayou Natchitoches Road has been repaired and is open for vehicular use.
Increasing water levels in associated river systems had caused backwater flooding and damage to the crossing in the spring, and forced closure of the thoroughfare throughout the summer.
Grassy Lake WMA is located in northeastern Avoyelles Parish, approximately 12 miles from Bordelonville.
