Club Hats Now In Stock

Picture
At long last we now have our supply of club hats. There was a few back and forths with the manufacturer but thanks to Ricks Persistance we ended up with a great product.
The hats are just $15.00 each and they are available in Beige, Blue and Red (sorry it missed a picture opportunity).
We also now have stock of our Shimano shirts with logo attached. The details are in the clothing tab but there are a few to choose from so call in to Holiday Lanes and try them on for size.

All Club clothing can be purchased at any time from Holiday Lanes just call in and see James or Fiona or any of the staff and they will be able to help you out.

Our club was founded by a group of dedicated and enthusiastic game fishermen and their families based on the Solitary Coast of northern NSW - the blue marlin capital of Australia. Underpinning the genesis of our club was a strong desire by this group of game fishermen to belong to a free-wheeling, active, big game and sportfishing club that was able to control its day-to-day activities, and its future, with total independence and a single-minded focus on our sport. 

The Solitary Islands Game Fishing Club is a fully affiliated member club of the International Game Fishing Association and the Australian National Sportfishing Association.

The Solitary Islands Game Fishing Club is based in Coffs Harbour, but has members fishing from several fishing ports of northern NSW centred on the Solitary Coast, all fishing the region's year-round Marlin fishery. The club's area of operations covers the coastline from Southwest Rocks to Ballina. We have over 30 big game boats, and over 150 active members in our club,, including a strong contingent of junior anglers. 

Radio coverage for our fleet of boats extends from Lennox Head to Hat Head, made possible by the recent introduction of the most advanced VHF radio repeater system used by any game fishing club in Australia. The waters off our coast are warmed by the East Australian Current, which brings Blue, Black and Striped Marlin, as well as Mahi-Mahi, Tuna, Wahoo, Mackerel, Spearfish, and Sailfish within easy reach. This region is unique on the east coast of Australia as far as ready access to diversified game fishing is concerned, with the continental shelf and the big fish that inhabit it only an average of 13 nautical miles and a comfortable 45 minute run seawards. 

Visiting game fishermen and women, and new members, are always welcome to our great club in this bluewater paradise...
