ANOTHER GREAT SNAP FROM TODAY'S PETER ELLIOT TROPHY DAY ON THE GOULBURN
Another great snap from our Peter Elliot Trophy Day on the Goulburn River.
Left to right we have George and Judy Green and Mark Delziel proudly showing the best of their catches.
Mark hauled in the heaviest fish but we are not sure where from. But he was at the place called the Breakaway.
George won the competition and trophy with a 3.5kg bag. He caught more fish so he had the overall bag weight.
Judy got 2.4kg. Both caught theirs at the Alexander Bridge.
Congratulations to George, Judy and Mark.
The Pres Made it to Thornton This Morning
