May 2025 activities

AFR monthly meeting
Thursday, May 15th

6:00pm
Pack & Paddle Outpost (behind P&P)
601 E. Pinhook, Lafayette

Join us this month as we discuss "Urban" fishing opportunities here in Acadiana.  Sometimes you don't want to load up and travel far, but need a relaxing moment casting a fly to some fish.  We can point to a few spots that fit the bill, and which might even provide a lunchtime or after work option.  Maybe you have a spot that you don't mind sharing!

As always guests are welcome and come early for some retail therapy at Pack and Paddle.

Acadiana Bugs & Brews
Thursday, May 22nd

6:00pm
Pack & Paddle Outpost, 601 E. Pinhook, Lafayette
Open to the public

Acadiana Bugs & Brews is an open community fly tying event. While not affiliated with AFR, several of our members participate and assist beginners.  Bring your favorite beverage, and enjoy a cold one while tying flies and sharing fishing tales.

There's no featured pattern this month, so bring whatever you're tying and enjoy a relaxing evening tying with friends.  Who knows, we may be asking all about what you're tying!  

As always, AB&B is open to the public. We’ll have materials and extra tools for any beginners interested in learning to tie. Come early and get in a little retail therapy at our fine sponsors in Pack & Paddle.
