Taupo Regional Championship Dec 8/9 2012- Lake Kuratau

This year’s comp on Lake Kuratau was a lot tougher than last year; we had a record number of entries with 28 anglers competing for the title. The weather was kind but with not a lot of breeze and a high number of Green Beatles on the lake the fishing was hard. There were plenty of fish rising but with so much food around the trick was trying to find something to catch them.

Des, Tony and Tim seemed to find the right recipe and all end up tied on 8 points so it was up to fish points to decide the winner with Des coming out on top from Tony and then Tim.
The fish numbers were down form last year but the size was up with some very nice fish caught.

Thanks to Craig Farrar and Kyle Melnyk for organizing and the sponsors “Stolen Rum” for donating the prizes.
