Inshore anglers from across Louisiana and surrounding regions will meet at Lafitte, Louisiana, on Aug. 2-3 for the final 2014 Louisiana Division events of the IFA Redfish Tour Presented by Cabela’s and IFA Kayak Fishing Tour Presented by Hobie Fishing.
Both tour events will operate out of Team Lafitte Harbor (4932 Kenal Rd., Laffite, LA 70067). The IFA Redfish Tour Presented by Cabela’s will begin its activities on Friday, Aug. 1, with tournament registration from 5-7 p.m. followed by the captain’s meeting. Anglers will launch from Team Lafitte Harbor at safe light on Saturday, Aug. 2, and return for weigh-in with check-in times assigned at Friday’s captain’s meeting.
Competitors in the IFA Kayak Fishing Tour Presented by Hobie Fishing will have registration from 6-7 p.m. with captains meeting to follow on Saturday, Aug. 2, at Team Lafitte Harbor. Anglers will launch Sunday from the location of their choice with anglers returning to Team Lafitte Harbor for the weigh-in. Check-in times will be announced at Saturday’s captain’s meeting.
Continuing to draw inshore anglers from Texas to the Carolinas, both IFA Redfish Tours include five different divisions, each with a two-event regular season. With budget-friendly entry fees, both tours offer opportunities to compete close to home while keeping anglers’ expenses to a minimum.
In addition to nearly 200% payback, every regular-season IFA Redfish Tour event guarantees a new, fully-rigged Ranger boat powered by a Yamaha outboard valued at $25,995 for first place. Each IFA Kayak Fishing Tour event will feature a $1,500 cash prize for the winning angler.
