We’ll have tools, vises, and materials available, so don’t hesitate to join us if you’re looking to learn!
F&F is an independent collective of tiers just looking to tie and enjoy a social gathering with some fine brews. While not affiliated with Red Stick, it was hatched by a few club members as an alternative to a traditional meeting environment. Everyone is welcome!

Capitol Lake near the Arsenal
This month’s RSFF #SackUpForCleanWater event will be held on Saturday, June 21st at Capitol Lake (near the Arsenal). And we’re teaming up with our friends at New Orleans Fly Fishers Club to make it even bigger!
In addition to cleaning up one of our local waterways, this meetup offers a great opportunity for anglers to chase a variety of sunfish species found in the lake—including the elusive Orangespotted Sunfish, a key target for those participating in either our Jambalaya Challenge or the FFI Gulf Coast Council's Suncatch Challenge. Be sure to bring a light rod and some tiny flies (Size 20 or smaller) if you’re hoping to land your first Orangespotted!
