2016 Daiwa Saltiga Dogfight Winner

Posted on August 3, 2016 by getfishing

Congratulations Cooper Axford from Port Macquarie NSW, the winner of our June-July 2016 lucky website member competition. Cooper’s name was drawn from over 10,000 website members and he was rewarded for his luck with a brand new Daiwa Saltiga Dogfight reel valued at $1,299.

Cooper was very excited to hear about his win. When we contacted him he had just got home from winning his indoor cricket grand final and could not believe his luck. He kept asking “is this real, is this real”. Cooper said that once he receives his reel in the mail he will send us a photo with it. Cooper is a mad keen fisho with plenty of gear but this new Dogfight is by far the best of the lot. Lately he has been catching a few school jew and can’t wait to put the new reel to use on some bigger fish.

Once again, congratulations to Cooper on his win. We would like to take this opportunity to extend a big thank you and welcome to all new members that joined our online fishing community during the campaign. We look forward to providing you with content to further your fishing knowledge and to provide you with the most advanced and modern fishing tournaments to compete in.

The Dogfight competition prize was drawn on Tuesday 2nd August 2016 online at randompicker.com. To view the result click the icon below:

Tight lines, GF.
