“The Friendliest Club on the Coast”
Mooloolaba Game Fishing Club
Mooloolaba Game Fishing Club was founded on a love of fishing, friendship and frivolity.
Now, after 25 years, the club has established itself as the friendliest on the Coast offering an innovative set of fishing tournaments and fun social activities.
The Mooloolaba Game Fishing Club (MGFC) is based at the Mooloolaba Marina, on the doorstep of some of the best light tackle game fishing in Australia. Common species in our fishing grounds include juvenile Black Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna and a myriad of others. Out a little wider, you can encounter Blue, Striped and larger Black marlin on a regular basis using heavy tackle.
The club prides itself on promoting tag and release fishing. Our tagging program provides information to the NSW Fisheries Department to assist in their research of the species.
Game Fishing Tournaments on the Sunshine Coast
Mooloolaba Game Fishing Club provides a number of opportunities for it’s members to fish each year. Our two main tournaments are both sanctioned by QGFA and the data collected from our anglers contributes to a number of research and conservation projects.

Girls just wanna have fun! The Billfiish Babes Game Fishing Shootout is a one day tournament for ladies only! Complete with a fancy dress boat parade, a shotgun start and a champagne breakfast, it’s an event not to be missed! No experience necessary.
Let's Have Some Fun!
Mooloolaba Game Fishing Club is so much more than a club, we're a community.
We host a number of fun social activities for our club members. Some involve fishing, some don’t, but they are all heaps of fun for the whole family!
The first weekend of every month is the perfect excuse to go fishing – it’s Rally Day! And if the weather is bad or the fish aren’t biting, we have a regular table booked at The Dock to catch up anyway! Want to see what it’s all about? Come along to the Dock at 4pm on the first Saturday and join us for a chat.
We also host a fun day fishing in the river for our juniors, a camping weekend at Sommerset Dam, a cracking Christmas Party at the Barra Park and the odd cheeky Reef Fishing Day. Check out our events calendar for more. Everyone is welcome!
What's Next?
