The Board of Fly Fish Australia have formally announced the members selected to represent Australia in the 2025 campaigns for international sports fly fishing glory.

It’s quite surreal to see my own name nudging it’s way onto such a list, and I’m xceeding proud to be taking my turn to stand alongside such a wonderful and talented group of anglers.

Congratulations to all my fellow representatives, across all our teams. Let the quest begin!

Women’s Fishing Advocate

Jo Starling despairs at the comparatively low numbers of Australian women participating in recreational fishing — one of the few activities that enjoys genuine gender neutrality in the competitive arena. She has made it her life mission to raise its profile as an optimal sport for women, due to
the inherent empowerment that comes
with accomplishment in this traditionally
masculine domain.
