2011 Kids and Family Day

a fantasic day was held last Sunday with the clubs Family Day

All kids and partners got a few fish and enjoyed a fantastic BBQ afterwards

plenty of fish were caught with Darons tribe getting a grewat feed of squid and all other kids getting whiting flatties leatherjacket and many other species

I fished with Annette who again towelled me up on the snapper

Recently weve had some great results by members with two records to be processed and Nicholas's mako record application for his 67.8kg mako on 10 granted.

Dave Fent wasin the action again at Port Macdonnell on bluefin whilst down there for the tuna comp, giving the fly outfit a go they boated a southern bluefin tuna of about 9 kgs on a 6kg tippet, this is a pending South Australian and Australian mens record. The other record on the go is Annette McClelland's capture of a southern bluefin on 8kg line of 13.8 kg's, this was caught out of Port Fairy on Knotte Yette and is a pending Victorian record. well done to Dave and Annette for there captures.

 Cliff and Dave over the week amongst other results of tuna and mako's got some footage on the tow cam, cliffy's new gadget.cant wait too see it. Paul Clint and Sean also had a good week getting a mixed bag inluding a 6kg blue eye and some nice albies and should be a few fines from them as well. Strokes fished on a local boat Riff Raff which they had an incedent with a 120kg mako which cut Phils week short, but fortunate not to a worse outcome.

No doubt at the meeting we'll get a full run down of events over the port Mac week as well as some of Dales recent weekend tuna runs, and any other trip stories to share, as well as the fines to follow.

Presentation dinner is booked in, we did have a last minute reshuffle to the Western port hotel back room, see all details this newsletter or come to the meeting for full rundown.

Please remember to pass on your tag and capture results immediatelly following the season end of june 30 and also remember if you are fishing after that you must make sure you pay your m-ship so your financial for the new fishing season.
