Some say he only comes out at night and is rarely seen in public.

Some say he is so shy even when he looks in the mirror be becomes bashful.

But tell Mike Cole there’s a fishing comp in Burrum Heads and he goes crackers, just begging to give away his Aussie designed fishing gear for Aussie anglers of all ages and skill.

Burrum Heads Amateur Fishing Club President Ron Henderson has spent many a long hour consoling Mike over the Easter being too far away.

But now Easter is just around the corner Ron sent the ‘King of Prizes’ Eric Davey to break the news to Mike being the 20^th annual Burrum Heads Easter Fishing Classics’ Premier sponsor in 2011.

The ‘King of Prizes’ revealed Mike became so animated at the news he broke into his favourite Pointer Sisters song – I’m So Excited.

Mike also wants to buy a kitten.

Congratulations Mike! 

The Burrum Heads Easter Fishing Classic welcomes Austackle on Board

Some say his best feature is viewed from behind.

Some say he makes them giggle.

We know him as the ‘King of Prizes’.

Behind every great man is an even greater woman, Eric Davey and driving force wife Rosemary have again trawled the country to deliver over $25,000 of prizes and give-aways including the early bird prize valued at $300

During the excitement of accepting the generous sponsorships, Rosemary revealed in a quiet moment Erics’ hard work is his best feature when giving away the thousands of dollars in prizes. 

Due to her popularity we have disguised Leanne the coordinator of the ‘Kids Clinic’ to hide her identity. At last year’s Easter Fishing Classic Leanne was overwhelmed at 157 young people attending her clinic; double that of the previous year.   

Some say it’s because she is a top angler you can learn much from 
Some say it’s because she brings loads of prizes and giveaways

Her husband says he shows her the hot fishing spots
But we know the popularity of the ‘Kids Clinic’ keeps smashing attendance records each year. 

With the help and support of local businessman Bob Wicks from Bobs Bridgestone Tyres Leanne puts on a great Sunday morning with a Q&A session, target casting & a raffle draw. Leanne is one sharp lady and assures the Easter Classic organisers she is ready for you youngins! Just to make sure Leanne has bought in reinforcements from Channel 7 to ensure you youngins have a chance at the prizes and loads of fun.

Some say he was born dreaming of the big catch and still is

Some say he’s lucky to catch a cold

We know him as the ‘weigh-master’

Lending his ‘weight’ to sustainable fishing, Paul Di Cesare is proud of the catch and release program, he likes showing off the impressive catch in the live tank.

Paul is as excited as a sweet tooth in a candy store at the new viewing window on the live tank and asks all anglers to be familiar with the rules so you will have a rod bending line ripping good time at the 20^th annual Burrum Heads Easter Fishing Classic in 2011.

The Burrum Heads Easter Fishing Classic has again teamed up with Fraser Island Iceboxes to bring you more fun than an esky full of monkeys on the Esky Wheel.

Be there Saturday and Sunday for your chance to take home one of these highly sought after Eskies in a range of colours and YES the special mum and dad Eskies are back.

And in breaking news Burrum Heads Fishing Club Members vote YES to a new Esky Wheel, so no more ‘LINERS’! Club President Ron Henderson said the NEW Esky Wheel has more spin than his new reel.

Mike Cole from Austackle has his fingers in everything. HEY MIKE we already said you’re the premier sponsor of the Easter Classic! You give ‘em a shot and they want to do everything for ya! Ahhhh, generosity.

We cannot reveal their identity so we will call them Chaslyn & Dulcie.

At a secret location deep in Burrum Heads the ladies have revealed the value of the major raffle valued at $3418 including Engal fridge and a fantastic Webber Q. 

The intrigue deepened as they revealed the raffle has an impressive 5 prize draw.

Some say he is the face of the Easter Classic

Some say his stories are more impressive than the lunchbox Brim can only catch

We know him as Max ‘The Man Microphone’ Smith

Max has dedicated the last 6 years to ensuring the wonderful visitors to the Burrum Heads Easter Fishing Classic have a memorable rod bending line ripping great time in Burrum Heads over Easter.

GOOD ON YA TONSILS!

Max and his wonderful wife Gloria are very much loved by and still remain part of the Burrum Heads Fishing Club. They will enjoy the Easter Fishing Classic in a supporting role and take time to see the Easter Classic from a different view, sitting down!

The Burrum Heads Easter Fishing Classic thanks both Max and Gloria for their commitment and dedication to the club and the Easter Classic.

THANK YOU BOTH

Congratulations to all the winners of various sections of the 2009 Easter Fishing Classic.
