DESPITE far from ideal weather conditions, anglers were out in force for the 2013 Easter Fishing Classic at Coffs Harbour.
Anglers generously donated their catch to Marine Rescue Coffs Harbour who maintained a radio safety coverage of all anglers, some of whom stayed out overnight on Friday and Saturday. The charity fish auction, conducted by Glenn Aylward raised $4433 for Marine Rescue Coffs Harbour.
