Hodgey Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I received this e-mail recently: Hello to all registered anglers Just an update regarding the delivery date of your Fishing Challenge cap and brag mat. Our shipment from China has been delayed and is now expected to arrive the first week of March. We will commence posting immediately upon receipt. Our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience in advance. Kind regards Michael Guest Cheers Hodgey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steze Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Im really keen as this is the first i have ever heard of this competition. Although one thing im not quite sure, Ive read on the website that you will recieve an e-mail before the day informing you on what species of fish. However, do they also give you the location ?

That's the beauty of this competition, mate ... you get to fish YOUR favourite/local area. Landbased or boat. You just need to keep your fingers crossed that the target species can be found in your area Cheers Hodgey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slabslinger Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Grrrrr!!!!! Cricket End of Season trip just announced for same weekend. Was looking forward to this. Sigh!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulthetaffy Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 I've signed up now. Will hopefully be "with yak" by then to give me greater catching options. Not that winning anything is the point to this anyway - it's a good cause that deserves my $20 and if I can get a whole days fishing out of it even better! High Tides for the 11th (for Sydney anyway) appear to be just after 6am and 6pm giving everyone the opportunity to fish a run-in or run-out tide. Good uck everyone!

Built to fish Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 A couple of other boys and i from school are going in it (all raiders). Were all really looking forward and were gonna be getting in heaps of practice well in advance to be as ready as we can, haha. Out of all four boys its our first comp and the amount of excitement and talk is really great. good luck to everyone who enters its gonna be a great comp.

steze Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 So basically the evening before they will e-mail you what species you have to catch. and then the following morning you can just go wherever you want to catch that specific species of fish. Am i correct, sorry im still quite unclear on the challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monch Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'm of the belief that they also give you your unique ID number thingy in that same email about the target species which will arrive the night b4 the event. When you take your photos of the fish you wish to submit, you have to take a clear picture of the fish on their brag mat and have your unique ID visible in the photo. This is all to ensure people are able to only submit their own catches that they have caught on the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hodgey Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Damn i was hoping it would be something of the saltwater species.. This year QLD, NSW and VIC will have one native freshwater species in their target group of fish There will be more than one target species for NSW anglers. One will be a freshwater fish, and the balance will be saltwater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
