Well done Roy on his 2.85kg Kahawai, which took out the $250.00 jackpot prize at our last field weekend, this coming weekend we have our fifth jackpot fish for the season, it’s fantastic that these fish at the top end of the weight scales are being targeted and caught by club members.
So our next fish is a KINGFISH of 85cm or greater, as usual we will kick of the kingfish jackpot with a $50.00 Gun City + Fishing voucher and $50.00 cash.
Still heaps of Kingfish about so get those livies out or start throwing poppers.
Good luck everybody.

Rockgas HB Field Weekend Six was our annual ‘ham’s event’ with 25 members enjoying reasonable conditions with varying levels of success. Those who travelled north found a few Snapper, but none over 2kg.
There were some very memorable fish crossing the scales, with pins going to Rex (2.57kg Kahawai), Kane with two stonking trunked SSH’s (5.99kg and 8.85kg), Jimmy B with a very solid King Fish (11.59kg), and last but definitely not least, Tareq with the fish of a lifetime, a beast of a Kingfish weighing 25.29kg from good old Awatoto. Way to go Tareq, what an awesome fish! That one fish earning Tareq an amazing 1050 club points!
The main prizes went to the following: average weight Kahawai for the whole ham went to Kane, Snapper prize went to James B and Dion for identical weight fish. Rex took out the ham for the heaviest Kahawai. The heaviest ‘other’ obviously went to Tareq for his monster Kingy. Xavier B won the lucky draw ham. The Jackpot prize of $200 was not struck again and Jackpots for Field Weekend 7.
Halfway through the season, sees Kane leading the points table with an impressive 5510 points, followed by James B in second and Tareq in third. Estella is leading the Women’s table with 621 points and Xavier B leading the Junior’s with 764 points.
On the ‘Most Species’ table Kane and James B are fighting it out, currently tied with nine each.
A massive thanks to Rockgas HB for their ongoing support.
Field Weekend Seven is the first for 2020 kicking off on the 11th of January.
Merry Christmas and Tight Lines.
Hamish.
