2006 Lake Moondarra Fishing Classic
Rob Devalter and the winning barra
| The annual MIFSG Fishing Classic was held over the weekend of 27 to 29 October. In all there were seven different species of fish caught making up a total catch for the weekend of about 350 fish. As usual, the barramundi was the most highly sought after fish with the largest of these tipping the
scales at just over 26 kg. This was a new record for the largest barra caught and its captor - Robert Devalter, was rewarded with the major prize of a $2000 cheque. The tagged "$25,000 Golden Barra" still remains at large but there is still a bounty on its head of $1000 for anyone who catches it before the
start of the 2007 Fishing Classic.
