Not that familiar with the Lafayette area but very familiar with the Mandeville/Covington area and for easy launch,kinda hard to beat the Bayou Lacombe area,Main Street is decent launch and heading N might get ya some quality bass and not typically very crowded.There is concrete launch on Lake Rd,decent ways S of Main St Launch and that would give ya access to some decent marsh fishing and with slight winds out of N,ya might be able to chase reds and bass at the mouth of Bayou Lacombe.One other easy launch is Cane Bayou,located adjacent to the Fountainbleau Fire Station on Hwy 190(dirt launch,free right now with possibility of $3 fee later this year)and Cane Bayou typically holds plenty of bass and making your way S leads to Lake Pontchartrain,where ya might be able to tangle with some fine reds and bass at the mouth.These are probably decent drive from Lafayette but easy spots to launch.Hope dat helps!!!
