Club record broken on last catch of the year

The Gibraltar Fishing Club held the last competition of the season at the Detached Mole last Sunday 15th December.
Officials were to describe the event, “the attendance was great, as always, and some good catches were landed with Charlie Carreras amounting a total of 1636 fish points breaking Guy Olivero’s 2024 record on the very last event and a new club record as it did not include conger eels and rays which acquire high fish points.”
The day trophy winners were as follows:
