Hawkes Bay Refrigeration Gurnard Guru Fishing Competition 5th week heaviest winner - Seb Lobban on Salt Shaker receives a HBSFC $50 bar credit.
Looks like the swell is dropping and Saturday could be the pick of the days with Sunday morning before the wind starts climbing again for getting out there and fighting the spineys!
If you’re heading out this weekend for the competition, text Weighmaster Scotty on 27 210 1170 to let him know when you’re on the water.

The sea conditions look crap again this weekend but, if you do find a pocket to wet your line, give Brett a call on 027 950 7060 if you need to weigh a grunter in.
If nothing gets weighed, the weekly prize gets added to next week’s prize.

It was a bit chilly over the week/end and with a fresh dump of snow, I can see why. That’s why this competition is running for 11 weeks. 🥶🥶
It looks like Wednesday is the pick during this week.

The forecast for the next few days isn’t that great so, the weighmaster won’t be sitting there in the cold waiting.
If you do manage to get out and land a Gurnard, contact the number on your rules sheet, 021577905 and we’ll organise it to be weighed.
During the week, I’m available to weigh.

A bit of a swell this weekend for the Hawkes Bay Refrigeration Gurnard Guru Fishing Competition with light winds.
The Weighshed is open between 2pm and 4.30pm so, if you come in earlier, keep your Gurnard in the chilly bin until it’s time.
More crews signed up this week. You can sign up anytime during the competition but, it must be done before you head out.
