Club Rules

INTRODUCTION
These pages have been prepared for prospective, new and existing members, so that by knowing the rules, legal sizes and bag limits, we might all enjoy the sport of fishing that much better.
The Rules (with the exception of legal fish sizes) have been made by members. In general the rules have been formulated to ensure that a days fishing is as fair as possible to all participants, the boat owner (who we depend upon for our trips) and the fish themselves.
No sport can exist without rules, they exist to make the sport better for all who follow it. Our Club has about 50 rules, far less than Golf, Tennis or League and most of them are just common sense
If you “just want to go fishing” with no rules, then don’t join a fishing club.
The Rules are set by the majority of members present at the Annual General Meeting voting on a Notice of Motion presented at the AGM. The club delegates are listed below.
HISTORY
The Enet Boys Fishing Club came into existence during the first quarter of 2009 and the founding Committee at that time was as follows:- “Dinesh Boodhraj”
The Club is now active in all divisions and is particularly interested in members, prepared to organize and promote fishing of all types including charter boat fishing, Jetty fishing and surf fishing.
Prime spots in order of specimens of fish caught since club existence is:
Waitapinga Beach
Port Noarlunga
Murray Mouth
Outer Harbour
Henley Jetty
The Charter Boat Division currently fishes at least once a year but members will be encouraging more frequent outings. This is to be discussed at the next AGM
Juniors and Friends are welcome but must be accompanied by a Club member, parent or guardian.
Family social outings are also arranged such as Dinners, Beach-fishing picnics, River Cruises and BBQ days.
Raffles are a substantial part of our revenue allowing us to keep our trip costs down to a minimum, and in particular help to subsidies activity within our club and we look to you our members to support us.
If you have any details or memorabilia from the past regarding the fishing club, including any old photographs, or articles which could be included in future editions of this handbook.
You are urged to read this handbook and become familiar with the Rules, but more important to actively participate in and promote the Club to all your friends and associates.
