21.01.2022 Andrew Clough 6th November 1973 to 31st December 2002 For those who don’t know Andrew Clough he was a special person.

19.01.2022 Ladies and gents, Due to current events surrounding the Covid-19 saga, I have decided to postpone all club meetings and social interactions until further notice. Face to face meetings don’t fit the scope of the new restrictions set by the government, Although I would like to know your thoughts on hosting a discussion or online poll through Facebook messenger group chat to let the club progress through these times ahead,... If anyone has any other helpful idea please don’t hesitate to bring them forward, there’s still quite a few things we need to be proactive in organising ie Cloughy challenge and running comp, Stay safe and healthy, from all of us at the club. Cheers.

14.01.2022 With Cloughy coming up fast. It’s best to start planning on target species. Remember only fish from the scoresheet can be weighed, unless the fish is Meritorious. The Cloughy is all about target weights to get full points. So remember a 3kg flathead scores more than a 6kg coral trout. ... Keep that in mind See more

12.01.2022 Get your shirt orders in by 3pm this afternoon to get yours on sign on night, Shirts still available after the cloughy weekend but will have a delay.

12.01.2022 The Cloughy Challenge is all about the most meritorious fish. This year it was taken by Matthew Pratt with a stonking 27.1kg Spanish Mackerel. Well done mate!
