The address is 16 Johnson Parade, Mosman Park, Perth. Club meetings start about 7:30pm but come earlier for a chat and a cast. Club meetings vary from guest speaker presentations to slide shows, fly tying, tackle auctions, new product demos or just the opportunity to chat with like-minded people.<\/p>\n<p>The club has a field trip most months, with extended field trips each year.&nbsp; Click&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/saltwaterflyrodders.com.au\/Content\/Club_Calendar.pdf\">here<\/a>&nbsp;to open&nbsp;the&nbsp;current&nbsp;club calendar.<\/p>\n<p>Click&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/saltwaterflyrodders.com.au\/Content\/SWFRWA Constitution.pdf\">here<\/a>&nbsp;to open&nbsp;the&nbsp;current&nbsp;club constitution.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>2026 Committee<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>President &#8211;&nbsp;<\/strong>Steve Bradbury<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vice President &#8211;&nbsp;<\/strong>Brian Harwood<\/p>\n<p><strong>Secretary &#8211;&nbsp;<\/strong>Tony Ong<\/p>\n<p><strong>Treasurer &#8211;&nbsp;<\/strong>Liam Surridge<\/p>\n<p><strong>Field Day Officers &#8211;&nbsp;<\/strong> Justin Monck<\/p>\n<p><strong>Membership Recorder &#8211;&nbsp;<\/strong>Gary Jackson<\/p>\n<p><strong>Website Admin &#8211; <\/strong>Dave Bailey<\/p>\n<p><strong>Raffle Coordinator &#8211; <\/strong>Leon Normore<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Merchandise &#8211; <\/strong>Richard Turner<\/p>\n<p><strong>Social Coordinator &#8211; <\/strong>Graeme Hird<\/p>\n<p><strong>Records Admin &#8211; <\/strong>Mick Small<\/p>\n<p><strong>General Helper &#8211;&nbsp;<\/strong>Thomas Coombes<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Saltwater Flyrodders of WA was formed in October 2001 and has gone from strength to strength since.
