Weekend packages vary according to the season and according to the needs of the group. Packages may consist entirely of fishing time on the water or a combination of fishing with workshops on knots & rigs, soft plastics, lures, fish filleting and learning the art of fly-casting.

Fishing Weekend workshops are led by Leeann Payne. Leeann has had fishing articles published in both national and international fishing magazines and websites since 1994. She has been a guest on many fishing videos, radio stations and television programs. Leeann was a presenter for Channel 9’s “Hooked on Water” television show. Most recently Leeann has presented segments on Fishing DVD, series 2-5, with Fishing DVD 5 being a segment on bass fishing.

Leeann has presented seminars at a number of Fishing Expos and Boat Shows from Brisbane to Melbourne. Leeann has passion, skill and knowledge for fishing and she is the first Australian female angler to land both a Black Marlin and Sailfish on fly tackle.

We are extremely fortunate to have a person of the calibre of Leeann to present our workshops as part of the Sports Tuition team.

Adventure packages are also available which include the fishing with an option to also include horse riding, abseiling, high ropes or hiking. These packages vary according to the accommodation location.

I thought the wedding would be the day of the charter. You could exchange vows at the pontoon, we'd all clap, then board the boats and get on with it.

When we get back, Tanya could throw one of the fish over her head for one of the wanna-be's to catch. All done.:lol:

Here we go fella's we could do the dirt on Angus here, who wants to send their other half along to educate Tania on the ploys fishermen use on their wives? :evil: Otherwise it will take the poor girl a couple of years to wake up to all the excuses fisho's use to get a line in the water!

Do they require a couple of guys in canoes to paddle around the area and sort out baiting, tangles and other on water questions, along the similar lines to the post listed in the kids fishing day thread.

I know seriously jack about fresh water fishing, but will volunteer my skills, whatever they are.....LOL
