Polycraft Tuff Tender Winner 2

Posted on July 3, 2016 by getfishing

Congratulations Joe McGuire from Gladstone QLD, the winner of our second Polycraft Tuff Tender boat giveaway. Joe’s name was drawn from over 800 fishing tournament entries between March and June 2016. Joe has been rewarded for his luck with a brand new Polycraft 3.0m Tuff Tender boat worth $1799.

Joe’s winning fish was his 61cm Coral Trout submitted in June 2016. Just like Anthony Sluggett’s winning fish last time, this was the only fish Joe submitted during the 4 month competition window from March to June so he definitely had luck on his side!

Joe has only been a tournament member for a couple of months and it’s great to see him getting amongst it. We are sure he’s going to love his new boat to cruise around the rivers and creeks near Gladstone and no doubt he’ll be landing some nice fish in it very soon.

Once again, congratulations to Joe on his win. We would like to take this opportunity to extend a big thank you to all of our members that competed by submitting tournament entries during the campaign. We look forward to drawing the next Tuff Tender in early November for the July-October competition period. For more information on how to enter click here.

Polycraft Tuff Tenders are an awesome little boat for exploring the estuaries and impoundments, see the video below to see why they are so popular:

This Polycraft Tuff Tender competition prize was drawn on Sunday 3rd July 2016 online at randompicker.com. To view the result click the icon below:

June Tournament Winners 2016

Posted on July 2, 2016 by getfishing

A massive thanks to everyone who competed in our June National, State and Kids Australian Fishing Tournaments and congratulations to everyone who won prizes!

As always there were some stonkers among the fish submitted and many new faces on the leaderboard at the end of the month which is always great to see. Over $15,000 in cash and prizes was awarded to the 50 winners and over $15,000 worth of gear is up for grabs again this month.

The tournaments wouldn’t be possible without the support of our sponsors, so we ask that next time you’re buying new gear make sure it’s from one of the brands seen featured in the images below.
