🎣 **TUNA & BILLFISH RALLY – IMPORTANT UPDATE** 🎣

Unfortunately, Mother Nature has had other plans! 🌧️🌬️

Due to the current weather forecast, we’ve made the call to postpone this weekend’s Tuna & Billfish Rally to give everyone the best chance of enjoying a safe and successful weekend on the water.

πŸ“… **NEW FISHING DATES: 3–4 OCTOBER 2026**

We know it’s disappointing, but safety comes first β€” and hopefully the extra couple of weeks will bring us some **cracker Whitsunday weather and hungry billfish!** 🐟πŸ”₯

BUT THURSDAY NIGHT IS STILL ON! 🍻🎣

Don’t pack the fishing gear away just yet β€” Thursday night at WGFC is happening as planned!

We’ve got a great night lined up:

🎀 Damien Orth – sharing his knowledge and experience with Billfishing in the Whitsundays. Expect plenty of tips, stories and local knowledge!

🎟️ Raffles & Club Catch-Up – come down, grab a drink, catch up with the crew and have a bit of fun.

πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί GFAA Presentation – Australian Marine Parks Review

This is an important one for every recreational angler.

The current Australian Marine Parks Review includes proposals that could see more than 500,000 square kilometres added to current Green Zones.

That’s a huge potential change for recreational fishing access, so come along, hear what’s being proposed and find out how it could affect anglers and our fishing grounds.

πŸ‘‰ So even though the boats won’t be heading out this weekend, Thursday night is definitely worth getting along to!

Bring the crew, bring your questions, grab a drink and get amongst it! 🍻
