Toledo Bend Rendezvous
November 2-4, 2018
North Toledo Bend State Park, Zwolle, LA
What
is Rendezvous? It's the oldest, pure fly tying event east of the
Rockies, currently celebrating its 30th year. Tiers from Texas,
Louisiana, Arkansas, and elsewhere get together at North Toledo Bend
State Park for a weekend to fish and tie flies. There's no planned
activities, but plenty of fly tying, food, fly casting and fishing, with
only a minimal fee to cover lodging and meals.
The activities
take place at the park's group facility, which features a commercial
kitchen and dining hall, and lodging available for up to 150 people in 5
heated log bunkhouses (30 beds each). There's also a heated central
shower and restroom building with nice night lighting on all the
sidewalks and a large main log building with A/C, picnic tables and a
large barbeque trailer.
Attendees can come for a weekend (lodging and meals included) or just for the day (Saturday). The event is open to the public.
Held
the first weekend of November each year, the Toledo Bend Rendezvous
(aka Southern Fly Fishers Rendezvous) is co-sponsored by the IFFF Texas
and Gulf Coast Councils. For complete details, go to the Toledo Bend
Rendezvous home page.
