13 years in a row, 2006-2019

Post by meppstas » Thu Jul 04, 2019 7:20 pm

Not being able to make it to the Ulverstone Angling Club dinner/presentation night it wasn't until last nights Club meeting that I knew I had won the Vic Whitehouse Memorial Trophy. Pretty stoked too as I've managed to win it for thirteen years in a row now.. Something I never could imagine I would do.. So feeling good today and looking forward to another trout season in a few weeks time..Club President Phillip Charlesworth presented the trophy..
I have set myself a target of 600 again for the up and coming season that starts on 3rd August, fell 27 trout short of it last season..
cheers
Adrian

Woooohoooo, Congratulations Adrian. It is an awesome achievement to win it once BUT to win it thirteen times AND in a row , , , , that is an absolutely amazing achievement. Well done Adrian.

You know, they should change the name of the award :-D

They probably get discount at the engravers too :)

Absolutely happy for you Adrian

Congratulations Adrian. That's a crazy amount of trout and an even crazier amount of casts as i'd imagine!

Looks like you're going to need a bigger trophy cabinet!

Cheers, Anth
