This Years Classic

[kezza99]

Been looking in the section about the AFO classic and cant find any info on an event for this year? Will there be a classic this year? Looking forward to meeting all you guys. Would it be possible to organise a meet and greet day in the near future? Just thought with all the new members, this might be a good way to get too know each other. Perhaps at the Colmslie reserve as this seemed to work as the central point for the classic. Is there a boat ramp at Colmslie for all you guys? I have been there a few times before but as i am restricted to shore fishing i just headed straight for the beach and didn't have a real good look around. What does everyone think?:side:

In short yes the Brisbane River Classic will be held this year, similar to last year. Presently we are organising dates and sponsors/ prizes. We will make available all relevant information as soon as some of this is finalised.

OK...sounds good...prob will look at giving people a bit of time to organise themselves. So that would make it around the start April, either Saturday the 31st of March or Sunday the 1st of April . How does this sound? Would be good for everyone to get behind this..

that would fall on the weekend after hinze dam trip if you want to meet up with some of us there it might not be too late to pm angus about it as he is the main organiser of that event.

Just cause after hinze dam trip some of us partnered members might not be allowed

[kezza99]

I had to edit the post, looking at the weekend after... any good?

[Oztrav]

yep thats sweet as mate

[kezza99]

Ok..So heres what we are looking at, Either Saturday the 31st of March or Sunday the 1st of April. Is there a boat ramp at Colmslie? What can people bring to make this event successful?...ie in the photos of last years classic there was tarps up on tent poles etc. Voice your opinion people!

[Angus]

Mate id be interested.

The best way to get thsi going would be make a post in the \"Going Fsihing' section and add it into the calendar.

Im sure we would get a few people there.

Angus

P.S. BBQ's at comslie are not great.

Other possibilities would Mobray Park, Sherwood Forest Reserve, The park by the ramp in FIg Tree Pocket.

Mowbray park would defiently be a goer i reckon. Yeah was gonna post on the goin' fishin and on the calendar but am not 100% sure of which day until i get a bit more input from the rest of the members.

[Oztrav]

why are they not good derelicts misconduct with the bbq plate

[kezza99]

BBQ is not a problem. If it came too that i could throw mine in someones ute, trailer etc if someone was willing to swing past my joint and collect it. I am only at wynnum, close to Colmslie.

[Lozzel]

Most week-ends will suit me although a saturday would be better. Just post time and place and we will be there.Let us know if you want us to bring anything.

[kezza99]

Ok I think we might go with Saturday the 31st of March. What did you guys have at the Classic that made the day run a bit smoother? I can supply a BBQ and gas bottle. I will also supply some sausages, maybe a few kilos. If anyone else wants to grab a loaf of bread or two, etc. also i can bring a patio umbrella for a bit of shade if its gonna be hot.

[Oztrav]

sweet as mate but now this needs to be moved or another started in the appropriate forum

ps ill bring some bread and sausages
