The Fishing Competition was held on the 8th March, and fortunately the weather gods smiled upon us. We had great fishing conditions, albeit with a small rain shower during proceedings, however that did not dampen the enthusiasm of the crowd.
Due to our early start, KP Marine provided a bin of ice to enable those heading out to keep their catches fresh and Porter Hire provided a BBQ , tubular steaks, onions and bread to keep enable our anglers head out with some breakfast on board. .
A total of 37 boats entered with 97 anglers on board, and some great fish were weighed in. Thanks to the generousity of our sponsors the prize table became 3 tables and everybody present ended up going home with a prize from the day.
We also had Kai Ika on hand to fillet the fish caught and to provide food to needy families from the frames - thanks guys for making the end of trip cleanup a bit easier for our anglers and for providing food to those in need.
Thanks to the all the helpers, we won't name them because invariably someone gets missed out, but their hard work and prepardness to lend a hand and make the day such a success is much appreciated.
And finally thank you to all who registered and the supporters who came to the prizegiving and made the prizegiving a great occasion.
