Mathoura Humminbird Fishing Classic

It is with deep regret that we announce the folding of the Mathoura Fishing Classic.
We have grown considerably since the very first classic in 1999 from 300 entrants to our 2020 classic with 1161.
Unfortunately our sourcing of a full 10-12 member committee was unsuccessful.
The current 4 member committee and past members should be extremely proud of the effort they put into making the Mathoura Fishing Classic one of the best events that it has grown too.
Every entrant who has participated over the 23 years has made this classic what it is. We especially thank all our amazing sponsors because without you all we would not have been the best prize giving classic.
A huge thank you to Tarragon Lodge for letting us hold the event at the perfect venue each year, and to all the other accommodation and parks at Picnic point.
Thank you from the MFC committee, Victor, Kylie, Ian and Russell.

Just to clarify what we actually need help with-

The fishing classic is run by a committee & volunteers.

The current committee only has 3 members left, we have been calling for people to join the committee for years.

The current 3 have been running a successful classic for up to 15 years.
Some are moving on to new adventures, so we need a new full committee.
We held an urgent meeting for local community support last Monday but unfortunately only 1 person offered to join the committee.

Mathoura fishing classic has grown since 1999 to become the hugely successful event it now is.

We need locals to join the committee to ensure the future of the Mathoura fishing classic.

Help for 1 year is not what the classic needs, we need 10 - 12 people to join the committee to further continue the future of this hugely popular event.

Thank you

Got to have a look at the the new Mega 360 Humminbird on the weekend with If you can get a chance to get on the water and have a look at one of these units, do it. It’s going to be on my birthday wish list. Thanks Shaun for giving us a run though.
