Lake Fields is a 2,000-acre lake located in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana, popular for fishing and camping. The lake offers opportunities for catfish, bass, and bluegill fishing.

Access to Lake Fields is available through the Lockport Boat Launch adjacent to Bayou Side Park, which provides a launching point for watercraft.

From this launch, paddlers can head east toward Main Street to connect with Bayou Lafourche, or paddle in the opposite direction to reach Lake Fields.

The lake is part of the Lafourche Parish Game and Fish Commission's Lake Field/Lake Long Game and Fish Preserve, which is open to the public at all times for recreation and legal activities.

Federal, state, and parish regulations apply to activities on the preserve.

The area includes camp lease sites that are accessible only by boat, though power lines have been down since Hurricane Ida in 2021 and are not expected to be repaired in the near future. Several regulations govern use of the preserve.

There are no-wake zones in effect for Company Canal between First Street in Lockport to Foret Canal, and in Bayou Folse between Company Canal and Butch Hill Canal. Making new cuts with boats along existing spoil banks and natural bayou ridges is prohibited.

Waterfowl hunting within 500 feet of camps is prohibited, and discharge of firearms on camp lots is forbidden by commission policy. The preserve supports diverse activities including hunting, fishing, frogging, boating, birding, camping, and sight-seeing.

Users should be aware that different activities may conflict with each other, particularly regarding hunting and fishing areas, boat wakes near camps, and shooting near camps.

No person may stake a claim to any particular location for hunting, and permission is not granted for individuals to cross private lands to access the preserve.
