Tin Can Bay Fishing Club News February 2022

Crabs for Christmas! Caught 22 December by Malcom Kay using fish frames

Crabs for Christmas! Caught 22 December by Malcom Kay using fish frames

The Club was in recess for the month of January which was always planned and will start in February with a number of fishing activities which are listed on our website: www.tincanbayfishingclub.com.au.

There will however be no social events (non-fishing) held during February in light of the current Covid restrictions. The Executive will review the situation towards the end of February and advise of any changes at that time.

Members have reported catches of cod, summer whiting, flathead, and mud crabs; there have also been some decent sized grunter and mangrove jack.

Club member John Blackman recently landed a whopper mangrove jack which measured 58cm, and there was a massive cod caught by Yug Eiznekcm near the Tin Can Boat ramp. I hope to have a photograph of John’s jack for my February news report.

Here’s hoping for a great 2022 – happy new year to everyone.

Membership enquiries are very welcome and for further information contact the secretary by email:  tcbfishingclub@bigpond.com or mobile 0437 242 171.
