NEW CHANGES as of July 1st 2023:

Club competitions and Recording.

  • All LEGAL fish will be recorded by length only and must be measured by being placed on a DPI brag mat and photographed to clearly show the snout touching the zero end of the mat and the tail as near as possible to the center of the measurement scale on the mat. The photo must show the date and time of capture and be presented within two months of that date.
  • For species with forked tail, the measurement from the tip of the snout to the fork of the tail will be recorded.
  • Fish with a rounded tail to be measured from the tip of the snout to the tip of the tail.
  • When photographing a fish members will need to ensure that it complies with the weighmasters requirements before they release it or cut it up as weighmasters may reject a non- compliant photo.  Members will also be expected to check the latest fish weights sheet for current leading lengths before submitting a claim.

Club Records

  • The club proposes to commence a new register of records based on lengths. While this would mean that a record could be claimed for a small fish, members will be asked not to make frivolous claims just to be a record holder for a short time.
  • To preserve the historical weight based records, this register will remain open for members who choose to use it in the event they make a record breaking catch.
  • Members will be required to submit a claim for a record accompanied by a compliant photo for the new length register, or a weight slip from a recognized weigh station for the old weights section.
  • Prior to submitting a claim for a weights record, members will be required to consult the old weights register to ensure their claim is valid.

Our paramount competition is Heaviest Fish. Throughout the year we record the weight of the heaviest fish using our list of species nominated each month. The competition is separated into four categories: Ladies, Mens, Girls and Boys. The angler who catches the heaviest fish in each species in a category during the year receives a trophy at our presentation night.

How to enter: ensure your catch is weighed at an official weigh station, then submit your entry (the weight ticket) to the Weigh Master.

Please note that weight dockets are valid for two months from the date of weighing in.

Our official weigh stations are:

  • Eden Amateur Fishing Club Inc. Clubhouse, Quarantine Bay, Eden NSW (by appointment only call 0491 018 749)
  • Pickles Fishing and Outdoors 203 Imlay St Eden
