is there anywhere with more details like where is the way in at ?

[FrankFWM]

I believe the weigh in will be at Manly at the Moreton Bay Trailer Boat Club - as more details become available, I will post them up... including the prizes etc.

[Nico.d.R]

ok thanks mate . do you know what the go is , do you have to stay in your boat to get to way in at manly ? or if i fish on the northside can we drive the car to the way in ?

[FrankFWM]

Hi there Nico,

I am pretty sure you could jump in your car and drive to Manly - I will check with the person running the comp though and confirm for you

[Nico.d.R]

Thanks for the info mate i have been wanting to enter a comp with my son this one sounds good and its close

Nico.d.r.....you can fish out for the day take your boat home and drive down for the weigh ins. Settle in for the night with a few drinks and they have lucky draws and prizes and heaps of raffles etc. Great for the kids , they can join in the entertainment and get giveaways that sort of thing. I've done the last 2 years.First yearI won a texalium live fibre 8-10 overhead rod for a fish. Last year my young bloke was in the major draw for the boat but scored a minor prize. Mate we've always come away with tackle boxs, shirts and hats . Good family vibe.

[Nico.d.R]

thanks mate i will have a look for sure .
