Snowy Lakes producing.

21-23 Mar to Buckenderra Caravan Park. Message from Claude:

Due to the dry conditions and generally challenging river fishing conditions due to the hot / dry summer, I have changed the date and location of the ‘Tantangara Trip’ to ‘Buckenderra – Lake Eucumbene Trip’. The fishing will be primarily lake based unless folk want to travel to the local rivers. There are plenty of shore based fishing opportunities however you will need a 4WD if you want to travel further afield along the lake edge (to the cattle farm area). This trip allows you to engage in all types of fishing in one day…boat fishing if you have one, fly fishing as much as you like, lures when you get tired or frustrated and bait fishing with a rod bell as we sit around the fire on the waters edge at night……or any other combination.

All accommodation options are available. Please express your interest if you want to share a cabin and I will try to coordinate – please note, that if you cancel your shared accommodation at late notice, normal club etiquette is to offer your part of the fee to other members. I will be camping.

A number are closed, though note that fishing (and boating) are considered seconday activities and have a more relaxed control.

CAA normally doesn’t provide advertisements (except for recognising our tackle shop supporters, especially when we get mate’s rates for raffle prize acquisition) but this post is mainly an announcement rather than advertisement. There was some sad news when we heard Tumut River Brewing Company was going out of business. It has often been a Saturday evening option in our annual Tumut event; next year 16-18 May (thanks Stefan).

The good news now is they are reopening! https://the-riotact.com/tumut-river-brewing-co-to-reopen-after-former-staff-buy-up/830286 so we may be OK this year after all.

A full report in next Nov 2024 Newsletter, but on our way home we did strike a problem.

Goodonya team, especially Owen with the handsaw and Claude’s skilful driving.

Our email server has been blacklisted by hotmail.com, live.com and outlook.com ie the Microsoft services.

Anyone with an email address on those servers will likely not receive emails from anyone with an address that ends “@canberra-anglers.asn.au”.

We are working to restore services but are not confident. At this point other services like gmail, yahoo and internet providers don’t seem to be effected.

Fri 22 to Sun 24 Nov

Entries open next week ie Mon 14th
