Swan fish comp rules & BBQ arrangements

Rules for the comp are going to be as simple as possible. Everything caught gets measured and logged on a piece of paper. At the end of the comp the papers must be handed in to either Tim or myself to be eligible for a prize. Start time 6-30am and finish by 11-00am with prizes awarded around 11-30am. BBQ lunch provided from around 12-00pm.

To ensure everyone plays ball, we will split everyone into pairs, whereby the other angler must sign your scorecard (just like in golf) to confirm your catch. So it is important to ensure your fishing buddy for the day verifies each and every fish caught. Details of who the pairings will be will be posted shortly, sorry but they won;t be father son teams or best buddy teams, but there is nothing stopping you fishing next to your buddy if that's what you want to do.

The list you draw up must have the anglers name, species caught and length (jaw to tail fork). with signature of buddy angler at the bottom.

Prizes for the Swan fish comp will include the following:

Cash $100 approx
Tackle vouchers $150 (Courtesy of Compleat Angler Joondalup)
$110 voucher for a 2 hour massage (Courtesy of Alfred)

Some flexibility in prizes will be expected depending on what gets caught on the day and how many end up entering.

Prize categories will include longest fish, most fish, largest total catch length and classic catch.

As was the case with the NOR v SOR comp we will offer up some cash for best photo taken on the day, so make sure you take a heap of pics and load them up on the site for Bruiser to judge. If you still have some pics from either comp that haven't been seen yet make sure you remember to load them up otherwise you miss out on the chance at a prize. I will try and get some movie footage of a few of you fighting some monster bream and telling us all your secret techniques and splice the best bits up to load onto the site for all to have a laugh at.

The NOR v SOR comp presentations will include several prizes, including Champion Angler, who will receive the coveted trophy and a $120 voucher for Landscape or Horticultural consultation courtesy of Jody.

Second place overall will receive a $50 Hogsbreath voucher
Third place will receive $25 cash.

I still have the shirt, siglet & beanie to give to Kal and his team for the NOR champion boat category and also Steve's trophy for champion angler.

As for the BBQ

We (Fishwrecked) will be putting on a sausage sizzle, (sausages, buns, onions and sauces) so there should be plenty to eat for everyone, unless you want to bring down some of your own food, then that's fine. As for drinks we thought it would be best for everyone to BYO, given we can't cater for everyone's tastes. We will probably have a few soft drinks available but not a lot.

Depending on our budget we may even cook up some bacon & eggs for those fishing the comp in the early morning. Tim will give more detail on that later on, since he is likely to be the chef at that time in the morning.

Fishing Buddy List for the comp

Fri, 2007-08-24 13:36

Make sure you read these rules and Regs. Spess, Tim and myself will be floating around making sure everyone is having fun and playing by the rules. Remember just because you are linked with a buddy doesn't mean you can't fish standing next to your mate, it just means that your allocated buddy has to sign off on everything you catch, so he/she needs to be close by.

Pairings are as follows: (As pulled out of a Fishwrecked Beanie Hat Just now)

Shag - Rickets
Jody - Nickyau
Sherbert - Loco
Tyson - Andrew (Sherb's son)
? - Steve (Dean's Dad)
Dean - Karlos
Hoju - Steve 2 (Steve & Dean's mate)
Hoju's mate - Sam C

These pairings will need to be adhered to unless I have to change the order with new people coming in. 

Cheers

Andy Mac
