Bodcau Bayou C, Hwy 157 to Dam, Louisiana, Kayak Paddle Trip

A kayak paddle route in the Bodcau Bayou just downstream of the Bodcau dam. This route is popular at Bodcau, usually as a short point to point paddle launching below the dam and taking out at Highway 157. Here I did it as an out and back starting at the 157 put-in. In the middle there are some spots where you have to look around some to see if you should be ‘over there’. But pretty easy to get back on track.




Above: Wow.
