Sport, Integrity and Conservation

The underlying spirit of angling is that the skill of the angler is pitted against the instinct
and strength of the fish and that the latter is entitled to an even chance for its life.

18 Nov 2009

 Pete Griffith, Luc VanOpdenbosch (ANSA Qld Tresurer), Peter Stonely (ANSA Qld President) &  Jo Harris (SQ Editor) along with the President & Treasurer of the Sunshine Coast Sport Fishing Club (Vince Kreis & Les Ross respectively)join us in acknowledging the Midgely family's contribution to recreational fishing in Queensland.  All made the effort to make sure yesterday's meeting with Hamar, Mary & son Rob took place at their home in Bli Bli.

"Hamar specifically mentioned that Mary was to be equally acknowledged & I have committed to that.

Thanks again to everyone concerned. Rob Midgely made a point of thanking me on behalf of ANSA Q . He said that the gesture was very important to his parents in the sense that Hamar is no longer in the public spotlight these days & it was special that they are still acknowledged, respected & remembered" said Peter Stonely.
