About the Tournament

The Fire Brigade has been running our fishing tournament as long as we can remember. It is an essential date on the Gamefish calendar, and has a huge affect on our ability to operate & upkeep our small community fire station.

We have some fantastic prizes on offer each year, as well as the pride of the catch. And of supporting your community.
