Once again the club had the most amazing time at Stansbury. It was the day of the storm on Monday 9 May when we met in howling gale force winds and pouring rain. A king tide was predicted and so it was decided to cancel our competition on this day. Nevertheless, it was with stout heart and sturdy mind that some ventured forth and were rewarded with big catches. With water lapping the deck of the jetty, those fishing there had big catches of tommies. Others fished from the grassy banks of the beach with water completely covering the sand and caught many a mullet.
On Tuesday 10 May, the weather had calmed and so the competition was held. Again, we were not disappointed and proudly showed off our catches at weigh in. Fish caught included tommies, mullet and even king george whiting.
We all went home happy with our catches
including Queen Elizabeth with her 33 mullet.
