About Fisherman's Friend

Fisherman's Friend is a boat ramp in St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana, on Lake Borne. From here SeaStatus scores 3 waters: Bayou Bienvenue, Lake Borgne and Lake Pontchartrain (Area 8 of 13).

The main water here is Bayou Bienvenue. Rivers are scored mostly on wind and current. Wave height is not part of the score, because a river has no real sea state; visibility and comfort make up the rest. Tide predictions come from NOAA station TEC4445, Paris Road Bridge (ICWW), the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 3.2 mi from this ramp.
