Fred's is a local bar which provides a boat launch. There is a $2 launch fee, with an "honor box" system in place. Fred's Launch gives you access to several ponds and, more importantly, the northern part of Calcasieu Lake, which is where Turner's Bay is located. This area, with its large oyster reef, is a favored hang out spot for Speckled Trout..
