Lake Monduran Family Fishing Classic 2024

The twenty-fifth Tackle World Bundaberg Lake Monduran Family Fishing Classic will be held on October 18-20, 2024 at Fred Haigh Dam (Lake Monduran), slightly north of Gin Gin.

Over $40,000 worth of cash and prizes will be up for grabs, including individual fish catch awards and random lucky prize draw sections.

The major senior lucky draw prize, sponsored by Bundaberg Marineland, is a 390HS Sea Jay boat, 20hp Honda four-stroke outboard, trailer and safety gear package valued at $13,800.

Juniors could win a $1200 kayak and many other great prizes simply by entering and attending the event.

The lucky draws, fund-raising raffles and event briefing commence at 7pm Friday October 18.

To have the best chance of catching a winning fish, listen to the educational talk from local guides with local knowledge, tips and tricks.

 

Juniors will be entertained over the weekend with a colouring-in competition for ages 3-10, casting competition for all juniors under 17, finding the coloured barramundi signs around

the lake while out fishing and fingerling release on Saturday morning, and every junior entrant will receive a competitor pack when registering for the twenty-fifth Lake Monduran Family Fishing Classic.

During the weekend, hungry anglers will have plenty of options, with tasty selections from Piping Hot Woodfired Pizzas.

Coffee Lips will be serving up hot and cold drinks and the Twist N Shake ice cream van will be there to pour swirls of creamy deliciousness.

Our licenced bar will operate each evening and during the presentations on Sunday, where no doubt a few tales will be told of the one that got away.

For those interested in attending the event, registration is $35 for adults and $15 for juniors up to 16 years, which allows for entry in all the random lucky draws and fishing for barramundi, Australian bass, fork-tail catfish and eel-tail catfish (or jewfish), with some senior section cash prizes being $1000.

 

For entrants over 18, a Stocked Impoundment Permit will be required to fish Lake Monduran. These are available online, or in person at Tackle World Bundaberg or the Lake Monduran Holiday Park kiosk.

Registrations for the Lake Monduran Family Fishing Classic are now being taken online at masa-fishstocking.org.au, in person at Tackle World Bundaberg or at the Monduran Anglers and Stocking Association office at Lake Monduran from 2pm on Friday October 18.
