Port MacDonnell Offshore Angling Club Membership Due Becoming a club member not only puts you in the running for our many competitions throughout the year, but also entitles you to many other fantastic benefits. Among other things, your membership allows you to attend social events and various BBQ’s throughout the year which are free to all members and their families, free entry into most club competitions, and the chance to win many prizes, such as Champion Angler, Heaviest Fish awards, monthly trophies and more! Membership applications will be accepted at any time, but must be received prior to fishing events or capturing fish that qualify for Club trophies or other awards and prizes. Junior members are those under 16 years of age at 1st July of the current year. We aim to provide a good return to you – good times and great company! And through our affiliations we actively support the superb effort being undertaken to protect our recreational fishery. Let us know if there’s something you think we should be involved in or offer to our members. Let us know if you have a product or service to promote to our members through a tournament or event sponsorship. We have moved with the times and commenced an on line membership application form and this is the only way to join or renew your membership. It is very simple and takes all the guesswork out of it. Trying to interpret some of the handwriting was a challenge and I reckon a lot of us should have been doctors. To join or renew, simply scan the attached QR code and follow the prompts or follow this link. https://pmoac.com/members/membership.html Should this not be possible for some reason, contact a committee member who will assist you. We have placed these posters at a number of shops, cafes, etc so you have probably seen them in your travels.
