A Serene Morning of Fishing on Lake Tyers: A Community Effort

The Perfect Setting for a Day of Fishing

In the early morning of the 28th of February, the tranquil waters of Lake Tyers became the gathering place for an enthusiastic group of anglers from the Lakes Entrance Community Health Centre’s “Lounge Fishing Group.” Joined by Jessie, Alan, and Jamie, the team set out with their sights set on a fruitful day of fishing for flathead, bream, and garfish. The serene conditions of the lake provided the perfect backdrop for what was to be a memorable day of camaraderie and outdoor adventure.

A Community Bonding Over Fishing

The “Lounge Fishing Group” is more than just a collection of fishing enthusiasts. It represents a community initiative aimed at bringing people together through the shared love of fishing. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or someone new to the sport, the group offers a welcoming space to learn, share, and enjoy the peacefulness that comes with fishing.

Support from Fishcare East Gippsland

An integral part of the day’s success was the support from Fishcare East Gippsland. Dearne Albert, representing Fishcare, joined the group, highlighting the ongoing partnership that has blossomed over the past six months. Fishcare East Gippsland has been instrumental in supporting the Lounge Fishing Group, offering guidance, fishing education, and environmental stewardship. This partnership has not only enriched the fishing experiences for the group’s members but has also fostered a greater appreciation for the local aquatic environment.

The Importance of Community Partnerships

The collaboration between the Lounge Fishing Group and Fishcare East Gippsland is a testament to the power of community partnerships. By coming together, they have created an inclusive environment that promotes health, well-being, and environmental awareness. These initiatives serve as a reminder of the positive impacts that can be achieved when communities unite with a common purpose.
