Bayou Bodcau

Bayou Bodcau Dam and Reservoir is operated and maintained by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) as a multiple-use project (Flood Control, Natural Resource Management, Environmental Stewardship and Recreation). The project extends from the Lake Erling Dam in Arkansas to the Bodcau Dam in Bellevue, Louisiana. There are 33,500 acres of land open to the public for recreational purposes. A Cooperative Partnership License Agreement exists between the USACE and the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF). The agreement authorizes the LDWF to use and occupy 32,471.85 acres of land and water for fish and wildlife management purposes. This public land is for your use and enjoyment.
