New points for leatherjacket

The Fishing Club committee has decided leatherjacket will be reduced to 5 points per kilogram, this new point score will be effective from the next competition season commencing July 2011.

The decision was made due to a plague of leatherjacket in Kiama over the last years which allowed members fishing out of this location to catch plentiful of this species and hence accumulate a points quicker than those fishing out of Wollongong.

The committee believes this decision will helps equalise the overall points for those who fish out of Wollongong and Kiama.

The score sheet will be updated and introduced in July to reflect this new change.
