The Annual Club Awards celebrate the outstanding achievements, dedication, and sportsmanship of our members throughout the fishing season.

Each year the Mooloolaba Game Fishing Club recognises anglers who have excelled across a range of categories, from competitive results to memorable catches on the water.

Many of these honours are perpetual awards, generously sponsored and presented in the names of past members, families, and long-time supporters of the club. These trophies not only recognise the accomplishments of today’s anglers but also honour the legacy and contributions of those who have helped shape the club over the years.

Together, the awards reflect the strong community spirit of the club and celebrate the passion for game fishing that brings our members together season after season.
