This past weekend we hosted our annual interclub competition. Fishing kicked off at 2 pm on Friday with scales closing at 11 pm giving the anglers a good amount of time to fish in the dark. Fishing on Saturday started at 10 am with scales closing at 9 pm however the second day was called off early at 6:35 pm due to a very strong south westerly wind. The fishing was tough all round however we did see some great catches including a few Dusky Kob over 20 Kgs on 10 Kg line. There are also 2 pending records amongst the catches. Thank you to all the clubs and teams who came to take part in our interclub and a big thank you to the skippers who got everyone out and back safely in the dark. A big thank you must also go to the Commitee of the Rod and Reel Club and the ground crew who worked incredibly hard to make sure the competition was a success. A massive thank you also goes out to our very generous sponsors, we thank you for your contributions and understand that these events would not be possible without them.
