Surf Casting and Angling Club of W.A. (Inc.) Dry Casting Report, 5 February 2006.

What a way to spend a Sunday morning. The sun's shining with not a cloud in sight, a very slight southeasterly breeze, happy people gathering to partake in a sport that's not too heavy on the body and fun to participate. Life's good when you're at ease with the world and having fun with friends. Low numbers in the seniors allowed them to carry out their accuracy events quickly and give them time to relax and enjoy their drinks. George must have been quite at ease for he blitzed everyone in the double handed accuracy and pushed all in the single handed event. His efforts won that event for the day. Some great distance casting won Nick all the day's honours. "Young" Gary has declared his coming of age and competed in the Vets section. "Getting some practice for the upcoming State and National titles" said Gary. Watch how the Vets events go up a notch now that Gary is pushing us. An even bigger fear for us is that George is also heading our way too. Still on the day we can overcome.

The Club owns an air conditioned holiday house at Kalbarri which is available for rent to the public and club members at competitive rates

AJ won the Vets Artificial Bait, Alphonse beat everyone in the single handed event. The targets took a hammering with quite a few bulls eyes being scored. "If Only" Cookie could stop snaffling his casts we would see his name up in lights. Vix and Filomena shared honours and we all enjoy assisting Kaitlin with her casting. Yours truly had a good day as the scoreboard shows. Congrats to George for producing a great cast of 180m to win the Open event. Cookie's third cast was a classic......

Thanks to all helpers and Pete for the coldy and snag at the end of the day. The sit around makes a great ending to the day.

Dry Casting Organiser, Bob Henderson.

Gary Gildersleeves has decided to move to the Veterans section for casting. The usual arrangement is that people stay in the same section for the full competition year, and only make the changes at the start of a year.

This shift affects accuracy scores because Seniors and Veterans cast to different distances. Gary was happy for his accuracy scores not to be counted for the last three months of the year.

Gary's casts are listed in the Veterans section for this month of February. A precedent of sorts was set earlier when George Holman cast in the Veterans section before the Yeppoon Championships and then moved back to the Seniors Section.

What does it all mean for the results of the competitions? Fortunately with the computer scoring system used now, (developed by Terry Fuller despite great expense and technical difficulty,) the raw results can be shifted around or deleted and a few clicks then recalculates everything.

So even though it is possible for a change of section to affect the results and the winners, in reality it might not make much difference except who gets acknowledged each month.

When I get some spare time (what's that?) I'll look through all the results and see if George's and Gary's moves make any difference to the overall results for the year. That might not happen or be possible until we have the full year's results, including scores from March and April.
