Throughout
the course of the year the monthly fish may change ie, summer months
skipjack & albacore may be added for monthly prizes.
Prizes
A
$25 bar tab will go to the winner of the heaviest fish in each
category at the end of each month. In the event of two fish being of
equal weight, the first fish weighed will be awarded the prize. If a
Junior member wins the heaviest fish of the month he or she will
receive a $25 gift voucher.
Weighing of Fish
All
fish must be weighed at the Whangarei Deep Sea Anglers Club to be
eligible for prizes. Scales are behind the bar in the clubrooms, or
if required, on the weigh station. When weighing fish, the angler
must present their current membership card and have one witness
verifying the correct weight and species. All records of catches must
then be returned to the bar staff to be posted on the board in the
clubrooms.
ONE FISH ONE CLUB!! No fish may count for more than one club ie, a
fish cannot be weighed for the Whangarei Deep Sea Anglers Club and
then weighed for another Club. It is your choice as to which Club it
is to be counted for.
Eligibility
This contest is only for Recreational fishers who are full
financial members of the Whangarei Deep Sea Anglers Club.
Commercial fishers are not eligible.
Tackle
All
tackle must be in accordance with I.G.F.A. Rules. Any fish
caught on a dropper or set line will not be eligible -
We rely on your integrity!
PLEASE
NOTE:-
As
per the WDSAC Club Fishing Rules, full financial members are eligible
to register any potential Pin fish / Records / First & Heaviest Fish
of the Month. These fish must be weighed on the official Whangarei
Deep Sea Anglers Club scales by a recognised weighmaster, and a catch
sheet must be completed.
