FISHING
CABARLAH: After a two year hiatus due to
border closures, a hardy group of eleven members
made the 380km trip to Copeton Dam for the long
weekend.
Everyone was expecting some quality fish with
the reputation that this dam produces big Yellow
Belly and plenty of Cod.
As Copeton was new territory for most members,
Friday was spent getting a feel for the dam and selecting
where to start the next day.
Everyone was out early on Saturday in fairly good
weather.
The Yellow Belly took full advantage of the long
weekend and took a ‘holiday’ as only one was landed
for the day.
There were plenty of Catfish in the shallower water
and played ball if you were using bait. On Sunday
the results were similar with more Catfish landed and
one undersize Cod caught and released.
The member’s draw was won by Andrew Peach
and the Saturday catch, a Yellow Belly, went to
Vanda Gill who also recorded the most fish for the
weekend with six.
The heaviest Catfish was 2.92kg caught by Jake
Gill. The tally for the weekend was 31 fish, one Yellow
Belly and 30 Catfish.
The next club trip is to Glenlyon Dam on November
12 and 13.
The club’s annual general meeting is only four
weeks away.
It will be held at the Meringandan Hotel at 2pm on
Sunday, November 6.
Please make an effort to attend to show your support,
and to ensure the future of the club. - Noel Purcell
Vale Chris Gleeson: Sadly, I announce the very
unexpected passing of one of our longstanding members,
Chris Gleeson.
Born on March 1, 1979, Chris and I grew up together
and before the club even began, many a weekend
was spent fishing with Uncle Matt.
Chris’s passion for fishing never faded, enjoying
the saltwater equally as the fresh and always keen for
a laugh over a cold one.
He shared many of his Uncle Matt Gleeson’s passions
as well as his father’s sporting prowess on the
hockey field in his younger days.
We shared our school days right from beginning
till end, soccer teammates, countless fishing trips
and his presence and infectious smile will be forever
missed.
On behalf of the club I extend our deepest condolences
and sympathy to the entire Gleeson family at
this time. - Contributed by Doug Gale
