Hi all

Lets hope the weather starts to sort itself before too long and we get a good summer.

The committee has been very busy working on many different parts of SNZ. The team is doing lots behind the scenes, please remember to say thanks if you get a chance in talking with any of the members.

We held a committee meeting on the 14th October to finalise a few projects, it was attended by 4 members of the committee with 2 on phones when needed.

We will be announcing two new life members of SNZ at this years Honda Marine Nationals which also brings me to a big first for SNZ and that is the signing up of a naming rights sponsor for the next 6 months.

Please have a look at Honda Marines website www.hondamarine.co.nz and support them in anyway possible.

The Far North champs hosted by the Port Valley Club where held out of Oakura this year. It was postponed from Easter weekend because of the weather. Even tho it's now towards the end of May there was a great turn out, we thank everyone who came for the day. It was cold and windy but the viz was good and there where plenty of good fish around. This year there was only a smallfish list only 6 different fish on it. 1 Kingfish, 1 John Dory, 2 Snapper, 2 Tarakihi, 2 Trevally and 2 Red Crays. The heaviest Snapper prize we to Jack Elliot with a 8.6kg fish. The heaviest Kingfish prize went to Geoff Crawford with a 25kg fish and heaviest Cray was caught by Luke Howe with a 1.81kg Red cray. Nat Davey and Moss Burmester won the title with 9 out of the 10 fish on the list. Brett Bamber and Porka Ryan Parsons came in a close second with 8 fish. Every one had a great day. We look ford to seeing every one again next year. Photos by Kent Remihana.
