Basin Lure and Fly club commenced in December 2003. The Club’s main aim is to teach members (old and new, experienced and inexperienced) techniques involved in catching fish using hard and soft plastics, conventional hard bodied lures and fly’s.

The 2009-20010 Commitee

Jim Barrie is the Club President. Jim enjoy's all types of fishing (just look at the Gallery). Jim was converted to lure fishing since joining Basin Lure and Fly Anglers at the first meeting then going out on Dave's boat for the Sunday Morning session. First ever cast with a soft plastic landed him a chopper tailor in a snag, now he can't stop throwing lures. Nor can he get away from the chopper. RIP many good lures.

Wal Balzan is the Clubs Vice President. Wal is a valuable member and helpful to the committee. Wal brings experience and passion to the club. Without members like Wal the club would be half of what it is today.

Scott Sharpe is the Secretary and has promised to make the coffee just right and to bring the biscuits when asked, answer all phone calls and get the committee minutes out soon after the committee meet. Scott willing to downsize from his large game equipment to tackle bream on light gear.

Wes Murphy is the Weigh Master. With high profile contacts and super mathematical skills he is sure to be a welcome edition to the team.

Amy Barrie is the club Treasurer. Amy is the club's trusted choice for one of the most important jobs for the club

Craig Johnson, Grant Kime and Guy Jamieson are the clubs general committee members. These three gents all enjoy a social and a tornament fish.

The club Information Night is held on the 2nd Wednesday of every month, and is held at St Georges Basin Community Centre, Meriton St starting at 7:30pm.These nights are used to teach and share methods such as knot tying, fly making, casting and retrieving. The information night's are also valuable in sharing and informing members of catching “hotspots” and “in-form” plastics, lures and fly’s. Up to date information on new lure and fly’s available in the marketplace are also discussed during these nights. It is also a chance for members to arrange non-boating and boating partners, if needed, for the following weekend’s competition so experience and knowledge can be shared. The club competition is held on the weekend following the club information night .

Ladies and Kids days are held during the warmer months which are a great success. This allows Ladies and Kids to catch fish on bait as well as lure and fly and is great to bring a family atmosphere to the club.

The club is a not-for-profit organisation with any money raised being returned to the Shoalhaven in the form of fish stocking and other general improvements to the water or recreational areas. The club is building their funds and constantly looking for worthy causes to support.

The Basin is a fabulous fishing estuary and many fish species such as Bream, Flathead, Tailor, Whiting, Estuary perch, Flounder, Trevally, Luderick, Salmon, Mullway, Tarwhine, Mullet and Snapper have been caught by members of Basin Lure and Fly in the past year.
