Noble Park Anglers Club

The surf competition started on a sunny, 25 degrees, Saturday 24^th August .  Unfortunately, there was no surf and the salmon was not present. Twelve adult members fished on that day, catching 14 fish (4 Salmons, 2 Trevallies and 8 Mullets).

Sunday was a cooler day, however there was still no surf.  Six adult members caught one mullet and one salmon.  Nevertheless, we all had a good time for the weekend.

Results will be announced at the next Annual General Meeting on Tuesday 3^rd September.  We hope to see everyone there.

Around 40 Anglers members and family attended the 2024 presentation night.

Live music was the courtesy of Club Noble, making the night even more special for the Anglers Club.

The atmosphere was friendly and it was great to see a couple of irregular members in attendance.

Awards were given away, together with gift vouchers, to acknowledge members’ fishing effort for the 2023 – 2024 season.

There were also a variety of raffle prizes such as fishing rods, an Eski, Bunnings and BCF vouchers, bags of lemons, etc.

Stella Kolbe was presented with her 4.7 kg mounted Brown Trout that she caught at the Pondage in April 2023.  This is a Senior and Junior record.

On Saturday the weather was average, with drizzling rain all morning and cloudy, with no wind.  A little bit of side drift and the sea was calm with white foam from the waves, perfect for the salmon.  Some of us caught early morning and others at high tide.  Total for Saturday for seven anglers: 67 fish, 73 kgs, two of the salmons weighing 3.30 kgs.
Sunday the weather was better and the water calm. It was harder to catch and 27 fish was caught by five anglers.
No one fished on Monday.
For the weekend, a total of 94 fish was caught, totalling 92.45 kgs!
The Club subsided for the sausages and burgers on Saturday night.
Company was great and we all had fun around the fire.Results will be announced at the next Annual General Meeting on July 2^nd.  We hope to see everyone there.
