After four intense days of fishing at Sodwana, Team Snowy Owl finally snatched victory in the nail-biting finish of this closely contested event – as a mere point or two separated top positions on the leader board, right to the last day. Fishing furiously, many of the anglers (around 300) caught and released an amazing number of fish – causing a seesaw of emotions, as hopes were raised and dashed.

Congratulations to Skipper Riaan Odendaal, Rick Rovelli (boat owner) and their crew, who clinched the title with five Marlin - a Blue, a Black, an exciting double hook-up of two Striped Marlin and another Stripey – to land the winning 1470 points. Team Pulsator took second spot with 1115 points and Team Aphrodite placed third with 905 points.

Club Marine is proud to have been a sponsor in this event for 10 consecutive years!

Umlanga Skiboat Club Junior Summer Fishing Derby

November 6^th 2021

Beyond excited, 63 enthusiastic USBC junior anglers leapt up at the crack of dawn to head off into a calm Durban Bay for a great day’s game and bottom fishing. 24 Skippers made sure they had every fishable opportunity and there were several surprises among the varied and quality fish caught - including Rainbow Runners and Mussel Crackers.

No fish were brought to the scales, but all were measured, photographed, and released. An app converter would later convert the measurements to weights.

Club Marine sponsored prizes and Caryne, Megan and Janine attended the prize giving later that afternoon. Congrats to the winners and all who took part.
