about us

A social group of dedicated fly fishers who are passionate about fly fishing in the tropical north of Australia and equally as passionate about the close camaraderie this sport brings. This passion and dedication led to the creation of the NT Flyfishers Social Mob blog site; an interactive and creative outlet where everyone can share our wonderful fly fishing adventures and link into the “after fishing” social events we enjoy in this incredible part of the world.

PICNIC DAY FOR THE MOB

A bit of an update on our next mob gathering on Saturday the 22nd June, at the Brokenflagen Picnic grounds/convention centre.  Location map and more information will be sent via emails.

A BYO day, there is a 'shady lane' casting area (all shaded), tying and lying area.  After a few beverages there will be a large number of experts to tell you all about, lines, knots, rods, reels and fly fishing techniques.   Just like the SEQ Fly Fishing convention, but in a park setting.  Bring your rods, reels and tying gear. If you are having problems with casting or techniques, there is always plenty of 'experts'.

There will be bbq's, esky's and fridges for your use, also, if you get a 'dirty glass' or don't have a 'sober bob', Justine and Marty have kindly invited everyone to bring a swag/mozzie dome, and stay overnight. There is also a large room and cover, so you can stay for breakfast on Sunday and arrive home safely.

Evening entertainment will be provided around natures TV (campfire) if you decide to have a 'sleep over'.  There is a ton of room and facilities.

We will finalise a plan for the BSSS (Bynoe Sheep Station Stakes) fishing trip, and now that Graeme has given up the 'Game Plan' we will have to try and work out all the map codes. He mentioned "sheep and cow's" so we may have to put a couple of milking cows onto the sheep station? Just on that, the BSSS is set down for the 6th and 7th July, so if you are staying at Sand Palms, don't forget to book ASAP. 

Remember the rule is to 'have fun' and win 'Glory'( I think that's the name of a sheep?).
