Earlier this month, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) announced the kick-off event celebrating Parc Natchitoches joining the Get Out & Fish! Program. This family-friendly fishing event will include a fishing tournament for all ages, various fishing activities and demonstrations, and raffle prizes! The pond will be stocked with adult-size channel catfish prior to the event.
Join LDWF and the City of Natchitoches from 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 29, 2022 at Parc Natchitoches for a day full of fun, fishing, and festivities! Pre-registration is open until noon on Thursday, Oct. 27. The first 100 youth registered will receive a goody bag, and every participant will be entered into a raffle drawing to win prizes.
