About Old River Slough
Old River Slough lies within Catahoula County, Louisiana, offering a peaceful natural setting near the towns of Monterey and Jonesville. This lake covers a modest expanse of 259 acres, making it a comfortable spot for anglers and outdoor enthusiasts looking for a quiet fishing experience. The water body is notably shallow, with a maximum depth at or near zero feet, which influences the types of aquatic life it supports and the fishing conditions throughout the year. The lake's shallow nature means it warms quickly in the warmer months, often creating favorable conditions for various fish species. Its location in Louisiana's rich natural landscape provides a regional backdrop that reflects the slower pace and calm waters typical of this part of the state.
