The big one is here!

Time to get ready for the 2026 Stillwater Open!

This is a measure comp to be held on Saturday, the 18th of April. Will now be held on the postponed dates.

If the competition is postponed, we will run it as a weekend-long competition over Anzac Weekend, giving three days of fishing to get your haul.

Fishing starts at 5am, and you need to be in the photo line at the club by 4.30pm.

The postponement competition will run from 5pm on Friday, the 24th April, and we will hold an earlier prize-giving on Monday, the 27th April. You will need to be in line by 2pm.

Measure your fish and bring photos for confirmation at weigh-in. The weighmasters will scrutinise your photos; there's no need to send them in. Two photos per species, per angler. The longest will go toward individual prizes. Both entries will help build average sizes and will be eligible.

The item to be in your photo will be emailed by the start time.
