The NCFFI tells us that it was a fantastic weekend for the 2025 edition of the Commercial Pairs! Between the great weather and Oaklands Lake Fishery being in top form, anglers enjoyed excellent catches all round.
It was hot and sunny for the first day of the Commercial Pairs at Oaklands Lake and despite the fish still spawning there were some great weights for the first leg of the championship. Top weight of the day went to Paddy O’Neill with a massive 81.020kg combined with his partner Andre Pirchio’s weight they top the leader board with 118.790kg.

On the Day 2 the congratulations went to Paddy O’Neill and Andre Pirchio, who held onto their lead from day one to become the 2025 champions with an impressive combined weight of 209.210kg!
1st: P O’Neill & A Pirchio 209.210kg
2nd: L Lynch & S Prichard 170.940kg
3rd: A Bus & J Roca 144.340kg
4th: A Browne & J Browne 139.89kg

The NCFFI would like to extend sincere thanks to committee member Adrian Browne for the organisation, and to everyone who took part. This unique fishery is a valuable asset to the sport of angling, offering accessible fishing opportunities and hosting a variety of events and novice angling days throughout the year.
