Almost time to fish: Abbeville, Wildlife and Fisheries to hold event on May 8
It’s been a long time in the making, but the wait to fish at Abbeville’s Lafitte Drive-in Park is almost over.
And it will begin in a big way.
The City of Abbeville is teaming up with the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) for a fishing event on Saturday, May 8. It will begin at 7 a.m.
“This will be the first official fishing event at the park,” said Councilman Francis Plaisance, who helped spearhead the creation of the park. That’s going to signal the opening of the park for public fishing.
“This is exciting.”
