Advanced registration for the rodeo must be received by mail by this Saturday, September 24th. The NOFFC club recommends mailing it before Thursday to ensure delivery on time. Of course, you can always register onsite from 7:00am to 7:30am on the day of the tournament at No Wake Outfitters. However, this could cut into your fishing time as the tournament kicks off at 7:30.
The Rio Rodeo is the longest running freshwater fly fishing tournament on the Gulf Coast. Target species is the wary Rio Grande Cichlid. All entry fish must be caught on flies and fly tackle. Categories are “Longest Rio” and “Most Rios”. Net proceeds from the tournament go to Casting For Recovery.
