Open invitation to the outdoor minded

[Wolfdog91]

So hope I'm not breaking any forum rules but wanted to extend a invitation to anyone who might be interested in coming to the Louisiana Trappers and Alligator Hunters Association Rendezvous where having this weekend. It's always a really fun time , kid friendly, good food, where going to have demos too so if you where ever curious about trapping or similar it's a great learning experience. Where also going to have some vendors so it's a good place to stack up on lure bait traps fur handling equipment ect , lots of folks even being their used stuff to sell so might be a good place to off load some outdoor/ gun related stuff. Their also a nice little gun shop not too far away. No to mention there's a gun range littlery 100yd away from where we'll be at.
So any how here the deal event roster

WOW I wish i could attend, that sounds like a lot of fun. When you get a bunch of coon ass together it is always a good time and good eats.

Sounds like it would be a lot of fun and interesting. However just too far for me to travel. Maybe after it is over or during, you could post a photo of two of the event/area.

You gotta look for the white boots

I’m from North Louisiana. Once I asked a Cajun fellow why they wear those white boots. He said, “to keep our feet dry of course”…..lol

You gotta look for the white boots

In my part of the country, the white boots are lovingly called "Kemah Ropers".

[Bojo]

Long drive from Pennsylvania, most day I can see Long Point Ontario across Lake Erie during my daily commute. Although starting August 1st 2038 my schedule will be open for travels like that.
Sounds like a cool time. Please post pics of the event later.
