Welcome, I work for Chouest down on the Bayou. I’m out of the country right now but when I was hanging around NO going to school or work I checked out Pearl River, Atchafalaya Basin. I would say Cypress or Pine trees XOP climber top. Oaks or anything with limbs Sticks or Wild Edge steps both with Reds climbing aider. I haven’t tried SRT yet but I’m told trees with limbs it’s the easiest setup. Good luck lots of critters there.

Welcome swamp solo! Although I've never hunted the spillway I have spent a good bit of time in that place working and duck dog trials. I've heard the deer population is rebounding after the 2011 flood and worth making the effort to hunt. Natural browse is the key you'll be looking for. Oaks dropping acorns if there are any left, if not luck for briars and green forage that the cold hasn't killed.

Welcome great bunch of guys on here. Just ask anything and we will be happy to help you. Once you hunt out of a saddle you never want to hunt any other way.
