About Fred's

Fred's is a boat ramp in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana, on Intracoastal Waterway. From here SeaStatus scores 2 waters: Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (Segment 4 of 12) and Calcasieu Lake.

The main water here is Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (Segment 4 of 12). The Intracoastal Waterway is protected water, so wave height is not part of its score. It is scored mostly on wind, since a long open reach can still build a chop, and on the current where tides run through. Tide predictions come from NOAA station 8767911, East Calcasieu Lake, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 10.8 mi from this ramp.
