VMR 2026 Family Fishing Comp

If your family loves an early start, a bit of salty air, and the simple joy of being near the water, a fishing comp can be a great way to spend a winter weekend in Bundaberg. The VMR Family Fishing Comp 2026 is coming up in Burnett Heads, it’s designed to be a community-style event where families can get involved. Enjoy the atmosphere, and make a few memories along the way. Even if you’re not super competitive, comps like this are often as much about the shared experience as they are about what you catch.

The event runs across three days Friday 3 July to Sunday 5 July 2026 in Burnett Heads hosted by VMR Bundaberg Family Fishing Classic. If you’re planning to join in, it’s worth keeping an eye on the official event updates for entry details, rules, weigh-in info, and any family-friendly extras happening across the weekend.

Fishing weekends like this can be a really positive way for families to slow down and reconnect. Kids learn patience and a bit of resilience, adults get a reason to unplug, and everyone gets time outside in a setting that naturally encourages conversation. Community events run through local groups also help keep skills, safety awareness, and volunteering visible especially around our waterways.
