ABCLA Fishing Rodeo

It wasn’t a typical year for the ABC of Louisiana Fishing Rodeo, but it sure was a fun one! The fun started on Thursday night with the opening party sponsored by Bottom Line Equipment. Anglers and members enjoyed food, drinks and some tunes before dropping some lines on Friday morning. After a long day of fishing, anglers and attendees joined H&E Equipment for their Weigh-In Dinner & Party. The fish started coming in on Saturday afternoon and as the scoreboard filled up, anglers enjoyed some more dinner and drinks sponsored by H&E Equipment.
