Lake D’Arbonne, LA

Considered a top Louisiana destination for recreation and fishing, Lake D’Arbonne has it all. Scenic views, water recreation activities and great fishing draw visitors to this 15,200-acre lake in the northern section of Louisiana, at Farmerville.

The lake has over 100 miles of shoreline to explore and fish. Healthy populations of bass, crappie, catfish and numerous species of sunfish-bream are available for fishing enthusiasts to pursue.
