Angling Clubs Unite at GoFish Nagambie

GoFish Nagambie and VRFish,
Invite all angling clubs to participate in the club program at GoFish Nagambie.

April 25 – April 28 2019 – Nagambie VIC

GoFish Nagambie and VRFish would like to introduce to a new initiative at GoFish Nagambie focusing and showcasing our clubs. It’s a great chance for angling club members across the State to unite on the banks of Nagambie Lakes, fish, chat and enjoy each other’s company.

Yes, the headline of the event may be the fishing tournament powered by Mercury Marine and its guaranteed $500,000 prize pool that’s up for grabs, but there is much on offer than just fishing.

The Festival Hub combined with our angling club program has everything you could possibly want or need for a great club trip away. Food, bar, education, entertainment, family fun and not to mention a great forum to show the fishing world, just how great clubs are and the benefits to joining them.

Learn more about the tournament and the club program below.
