For our last trip of the year we couldn't have picked a prettier spot. Patonga is just across the water from Palm Beach & a million miles from care. The scenery is such that you could be anywhere on the east coast of Australia yet it's barely an hour from Sydney.

I love the StClair trips. The location, the company, the target species, they’re all close to my heart. Those soft rolling hills are so easy on the eye. It’s just far enough away to feel like you’re on holiday. Everyone’s relaxed & in a ‘on tour’ frame of mind. Then there’s the reason for travelling so far from our beloved coast. Impoundment Bass.

What a lucky country we live in. Last month we were blessed with some of the best Salmon fishing the club has enjoyed , which took place on calm seas in balmy conditions. This month’s outing was our traditional Trout Bash out at Oberon, held in freezing winds yet without rain, sleet or snow. From the mountains to the sea; who said fishing was boring? Certainly not ‘Big’ Bob Williams, Andrew ’Stickerman’

We had agreed to meet at Tacoma at 6am which meant most of us had to get up a 4.30am. Now let’s never speak of it again. In spite of the gawd awful early start we had a great turn out. We had 2 flotillas so I’ll start with the ‘Yak boys. Mac Lyall, Murray Keating [ Gentleman fly fisher & Adventurer] & Ivan ‘Milat’ Malby were joined by Rod Dillon who was on his first coast trip with the club.
