I totally agree sammy, social days arent fishing comps, its a social day where you meet everyone in the club, talk shit, leave your ego at the fishing comps and have plenty of fun.
It is by no means easy to organise a social, trust me, and i think you have buckley's of organising a social in three different locations with marshalls, dont get me wrong i like your idea but its just not going to happen unless you have a team of dedicated organisers and at least 6 months preperation. No one would meet anyone, the people that are less experienced wont have fun and families cant really join in, I think there is a fine line between a social and a comp and in my opinion fishraider isnt really competition orientated club.
I agree with swordie on the flattie social
1. Everyone from very experienced to no experience will enjoy
2. Families will enjoy
3. Most people will actually catch a fish for the weigh in
4. There is plenty of lanbased options people who dont have a boat.
5. There is hire a tinnie options
I reckon this social will accomodate for most fishraider members and will have a large turnout, it can be done over a whole day with a BBQ lunch.
What do you guys think? Im happy to help organise...
