Fireside Chat - Southern Bayside Custom Rods

Join us for the first Fireside Chat of the year, featuring Mark Pauliuk from Southern Bayside Custom Rods, in conversation with Fishing Committee Chair John Malempre. Mark is a full‑time rod builder based in Cheltenham, with years of hands‑on experience designing, building, repairing, and modifying fishing rods of all types.

Specialising in custom rods for Port Phillip Bay, including snapper and whiting rods, Mark will share his insights into what makes a great rod, how to choose the right setup, and how small adjustments can make a big difference on the water. A must‑attend session for fishos of all levels.

Bar and Kitchen open from 5pm. Midweek burger deals available!
