About
Southern Peninsula Angling Club is a family-friendly fishing club located in Sydney, Australia. They are dedicated to promoting responsible fishing practises and welcome people of all ages to join their club. What sets them apart from other clubs is the range of competitions they offer, which can vary in duration from a day to several weeks, depending on the time of year and the specific competition. They also have ongoing prizes that can be won throughout the entire year.
One unique aspect of the club's competitions is that entries are based on fish length rather than weight. This allows members to choose whether to release the fish back into the water or keep it for the table. Photo entries are taken on a brag mat and uploaded to the club's TeamApp platform, where the weigh-master can verify them. The club uses TeamApp extensively for all their communications, making it easy for members to stay connected and participate in discussions.
In addition to TeamApp, Southern Peninsula Angling Club also has a presence on Facebook and Instagram. These social media platforms give club members the opportunity to share their fishing experiences, participate in discussions, and comment on each other's posts. The club believes in giving back to its members, and all funds raised through competitions and other activities are returned as prizes, gift certificates, and subsidised accommodation.
The club organises a variety of events and trips for its members, including away trips, social events, and local competitions. Members also have the opportunity to participate in shore-based and offshore-based fishing competitions. The club encourages interested individuals to explore their website and social media sites to learn more about what they have to offer and to attend their monthly meetings.
Meetings are held on the first Monday of every month, except for January, at the Rye Hotel in the Blue Room. The address is 2415 Point Nepean Rd, Rye VIC 3941. Members often gather beforehand to enjoy a meal together. Details about upcoming competitions can be found on TeamApp, accessible to members only.
New members are always welcome, and interested individuals can apply for membership online or download a membership form from the club's website. For any issues related to competitions or other club matters, members can contact the weigh-master.
Southern Peninsula Angling Club takes pride in being powered by WordPress, a widely recognised and user-friendly website platform.
