Well we had a good turn out with Eddie from South Australia once again making the 8 hour drivw down to compete with us - A big thank you for the massive effort

Also to Mark and Graham for their 3 hour trips from sale and Venus Bay.

All in all we had 8 official competitors and one day caster named Peter who threw a good distances of 140+ meters with his threadline outfit.

Weather conditions were wet and low variable wind wth a barometer hitting 1025+

Best caster on the day was once again Lee andrews - top casting on a difficult day.

Once again thanks for all those that attended as well as the few visitors like Clint and the father and son that came down for a look.
