AFR monthly meeting
Thursday, August 17, 2023
6:00pm meeting
Pack & Paddle Outpost, 601 E. Pinhook, Lafayette
This month, we'll have a guest speaker. Brian Roberts is a member of the Red Stick Fly Fishers and an avid flyfisher and excellent tier.
Brian will give a presentation on fly fishing for Spotted Bass in Louisiana. Spotted bass are an often overlooked species but a great target for fly fishers, as they live in beautiful sandy bottom rivers with swift current. Flyfishing is ideal for this environment as there are several fly angling techniques that are effective, from dead drifting topwater flies to stripping large streamers.
Come early and get in a little casting practice, weather permitting. Or come into Pack & Paddle and get some retail therapy.

This month, our meeting is moved from the regular date and will be held in conjunction with the Acadiana Open Night Fly Tying Group meeting.
Flip will begin by demonstrating his version of the Louisiana Toad, a redfish fly developed and used by a popular guide down in Plaquemines Parish. Bring your vise and tools, and any materials for any flies you wish to tie. Beginners can come and watch, or tie as there are extra tools available. As always, cold brews and refreshments will be provided.
Weather permitting, we'll have casting around 5:30pm so bring your rods. Or come into Pack & Paddle and get some retail therapy.
