Merimbula Tackleworld Tri-Estuary Challenge

28 Nov, 2007 08:04 AM
The weekend was a hoot as the club had its second Merimbula Tackleworld Tri-Estuary Challenge.

Luckily the weather and fish decided to play their part ensuring all anglers had a good time. There were 23 teams who participated and all species were caught.

Longest Bream was caught by Col Beveridge 370 mm. Second longest Bream caught by Cain Tailor 360mm. Longest Dusky Flathead was caught by Col Beveridge 740 mm. Second longest Dusky flathead caught by Jim Fairbairn 660mm. Longest Trevally was caught by Gerald Smith 399mm. Second longest Trevally caught by Dominic Boyton 358mm. Longest Tailor was caught by Jim Fairbairn 362 mm. Second longest Tailor caught by Shane Coles 357mm. Lucky angler door prize went to Craig Paterson.

A big thank-you to tournament directors Dave Stewart and Michael Hampson and the efforts of Barrie and Margaret Francis and Darragh Reynolds.

Not alot of other fishing was done by members over the week as most were geared up for the Tri- Estuary however anglers that put to sea had a good week on the flathead grounds with plenty of sandys and tigers about. Don't forget the huge eight tray seafood raffle at the Chook and Ox 5.30-6.30 Thursday nights and this Friday night will be a ripper at our Spencer Park Clubhouse as a member of the Department Of Primary Industry will be holding a talk on artificial reefs with the possibility of one located in Merimbula Lake.

Our Christmas party will be held on December 7 and Santa would like to give every child a small gift, so parents who are bringing their children please ring Karen Pryor 64950609 regarding presents and a plate of finger food for the night.

Special party games and activities will be run for the children whilst waiting for Santa's arrival.

Members and the general public all invited to the clubhouse 6.30 Friday night when Darragh Reynolds and myself will open the clubrooms for all to enjoy a couple of drinks a chat and a chance to have a win in the raffle before our guest speaker takes the floor. May your reel scream, Mex.
