Ahoy Summertime Anglers!

What could be better than a measure fishing competition that runs all summer long?

It’s time to enter the famous “Summerlong” Measure up fishing competition. A great comp for the whole family, especially kids on holiday!

This competition runs from 5am Boxing Day 26 December through until Sunday 8th February Midday. A prize giving will be held Sunday 8th Feb, around 4.30PM at the club. You must be at the prize giving to receive a prize, juniors excluded.

Cash Prizes – Minimum $500 for 1st Snapper, prizes for top ten fish in open snapper category.

This is a comp where you can fish anywhere in NZ coastal waters, just mind those new HPA’s. So great if you and the family are getting away, you can measure your catch, and send your entry in with the number attached that will be sent out at the start of the comp. All the usual categories, along with Junior and Women’s. The kids can be entertained fishing while the olds relax.

Also the return of the popular “Mixed Bag.” This will be made up of the anglers combined length of the longest fish entered in all categories. So entering a fish from all available will be the key, there is plenty of opportunity to target different species over the long competition.

See swbc.co.nz for a link to the rules, read them carefully and reach out if you have any questions.

Entry is $50 for an adult, $20 for Junior (under 15 years) and $100 for a Family. Earlybird prize a $100 bar tab! – closes 14th Dec. General entries close midnight 22 Dec.

This comp is growing year by year, so get your entry in and make sure your mate enters too!
