May Pairs Competition

The May Pairs Competition was held over the 4th, 5th and 6th May. The weather conditions weren’t great, but as usual that did not stop our fisho’s getting out there and catching fish. The biggest dilemma that one of our members faced, was who would be his partner for the pairs comp. Apparently, he went through 3 people before the comp started on Friday night. We had a good turn up at the weigh in on Sunday and it is fantastic to see all the sub-junior members participating. A big thank you for our stand in Iron Chef ( AKA – The Pringa) for cooking the BBQ on Sunday, you did a great job. Congratulations to all the winners!
