Congratulations to 8 year old Tyler Barnes on his pending QLD and club record black marlin Wednesday fishing with Dad Bevan for Newport GFC at 55.5kg. Unfortunately as the fish was tail wrapped and came up dead it was a very tough fight for young Tyler who battle for an hour and a half to get it to the boat. What an amazing effort for the youngster!

The little blacks are showing up on both coasts now, let the summer fun begin!

I hope everyone had a great holiday over Xmas with more time on the water to come!
