Tony reported on his only trip out recently from Port Hughes resulting in 14 King
George Whiting and 4 Squid.

I gave an account of my recent charter out of Mooloolaba, Queensland resulting in
40 assorted reef fish to 4KGS including , Snapper, Trevalley, Tusk fish, Bream and a
very nice Mangrove Jack. Two magnificent Whales were encountered on the return
trip so that was a bonus indeed.

FUTURE ACTIVITIES

Th
PORT VICTORIA - MONDAY, 18 to FRIDAY 22 ND SEPTEMBER.

Our normal arrangements for Port Vic staying at Roley’s palatial accommodation.
There are still a few beds available so contact Spud and put your name down. A very
enticing accommodation fee of $15 per night makes 4 nights a steal at $60.
Hopefully it will have warmed up a bit by then but nonetheless there is always the
substantial fire that Gary and the boys enjoy of an evening.
I hope to see you there.

TH
WEST LAKES – GRANDKIDS DAY - TUESDAY, 10 OCTOBER

This is our annual family day during the school holidays. A chance for the grandkids
to pick up some fishing skills and for us all to try our luck and participate in a
barbeque. There are also playground facilities available at the venue which is near
the lake inlet off Trimmer Parade , West Lakes. Further details may be obtained from
Greg D.

TH
PUNYELROO - FRIDAY 20 to SUNDAY 22 OCTOBER.

physical activities in keeping with this year’s theme. It is a family friendly activity and
Members and friends are encouraged to bring their wives , grandchildren etc.
A more extensive outline of what will be available will appear in our next Newsletter
once DVA funding arrangements are clear and we have a better idea of numbers.

all or any of the days.
