2024 Gold Coast Flathead Classic a reel success

The 2024 Gold Coast Flathead Classic reeled in a fantastic few days of fishing, fun and fierce competition, all blessed by near-perfect weather.

Anglers hit the water with enthusiasm and, as the final day wrapped up, the weather held long enough for a full day of fishing and an exciting evening of presentations before a dramatic turn, with wind and rain bringing the event to a thrilling close.

This year saw an impressive 5952 flathead caught and released – a testament to the skill and dedication of the 303 teams and 750 plus anglers who participated.

But it wasn’t only about the fishing.

John was the winner of the major draw, thanks to Surf Coast Marine.

 

The classic continues to have a positive impact on the local economy, with participants and their families filling local hotels, restaurants and supporting shops and other businesses in the area.

This ripple effect contributes greatly to the event’s ongoing success and the vibrancy of the Gold Coast community.

With over $500,000 in prizes, giveaways and rewards up for grabs, the Flathead Classic keeps its promise of giving back.

For every $1 received in angler registration fees, $2 is returned in prizes and giveaways – a clear demonstration of our commitment to celebrating and supporting the fishing community.

Off the Gold Coast, classic senior team fishing.

 

We couldn’t have done it without the generous backing of our sponsors, including Surf Coast Marine, Quintrex, Suzuki Marine and many more.

A special shout out to our incredible volunteers, local businesses and of course, the participants for making this year’s event one to remember.

Mark your calendars for next year.

We’ll be back with even bigger prizes and plenty of fish to catch at the 2025 Flathead Classic!
