Lake Lyell ANSA Convention 2009 (Catch & Release)

It is on again, so organise your crew and camping gear, download an entry form and competition details and get registered for the second annual Lake Lyell ANSA Convention hosted by the Sea Bees Boating Club. There were some great captures and releases last year, and we expect better results this year.

Outing co-ordinators please remember to add a short outing report in the forum

All outing co-ordinators are requested to post an outing report in the Outing Report forum, it isn't rocket science and we are in 2008!
Please have a go at posting your outing report on there, if you haven't registered you will have to do so, but that takes only a minute or two.

A few changes

I have set the new chat forum up. Anyone who wishes to refer to the old forum may do so for a period, but I'll be removing it completely in due course. I have changed the main link above to the new forum, which has many more features and is a lot nicer to look at and use. I think those who do use it will agree, and hopefully those of you who don't will start to.

Point scores as given to me are on the point scores page and the Outdoor program has been updated to the end of the calendar year.

Hawkesbury River Family Fishing Workshop - What a Ripper!!

Fish, fish and more fish was the result of a great fishing experience for twenty single parent families from western Sydney at Del Rio Resort close to Wisemans Ferry on the 6th and 7th Oct 07. More than 110 fish were caught over the two days consisting of Estuary Perch, Flathead, Bream, Mulloway and Eels. The majority of fish were released for future occasions. Some of the bream caught were absolutely outstanding!! Read the full story

Glenn Reid catches a personal best Carp at Rouse Hill

Glenn Reid (right) has caught a personal best European Carp at his secret carp spot in Rouse Hill. The carp measured 680mm and weighed in at 4 kgs.

Nice capture Glenn, and thanks for the photo.

Paul Tanti and Laurie both catch monster Cod!

Paul Tanti (left), a Sea Bees and ANSA member captured this monster Murray Cod while trolling on the 29th of September this year. We understand that in all likelyhood, it would have been a Sea Bees club record, an ANSA NSW and ANSA National record, however, it was not weighed on official scales as the process would have taken too long and the fish might well have died. It was photographed and measured, weighted on uncertified scales and released to play another day.

Pauls Murray Cod weighed 25 kgs, measured 1250 mm in length, and was caught on a 4.5 kg braid main line with a 3.6kg breakaway mono leader
Outstanding effort Paul.

Laurie Zammit (left) also caught a monster Murray Cod.
Well done Laurie. Read the full outing report

Bob Burgess lands a great Flathead

Burley Bob Burgess (right) has caught a cracking Dusky Flathead from the shore at Goodwood Island on the Clarence River. Bob was using a soft plastic. The dusky flathead measured 880mm and weighed 5.25 kgs.

Thanks for sending the photo and the capture details down Sue. Oh, and of course you make quite the subject Bob.
