The NZSIA will recieve a personally signed copy of Al Brown‘s recipe book ‘Go Fish’, an annual membership to Fishing Coast to Coast Magazine and a ‘Spot X’ publication for his area.

Here’s what Jay Marshall from the NZSIA said when he learned the NZSIA had won the monthly prize draw:
“The NZSIA has become a member of the NZRFC as we believe the NZRFC has done a lot for recreational fishers in the past and will continue to in the future. The average fisher is often not aware of the work done by NZRFC most of which is on a voluntary basis. Funds are what are most needed and the membership fee paid by NZSIA will be well spent by them. I believe one of the objectives of the NZSIA should be to encourage all of our members to join and also promote the NZRFC though our retail shops..”

Gordon will recieve a personally signed copy of Al Brown‘s recipe book ‘Go Fish’, an annual membership to Fishing Coast to Coast Magazine and a ‘Spot X’ publication for his area.

Here’s the message recieved from Gordon when he learned he had won his prize:

“I am a member because I believe in it. Us recreational fishers know who is plundering the fish stocks. Here is a few dreams we have. Make sure kahawai are plentiful. They are the people’s fish. I’d like to see all quota snapper caught by longliners no trawlers. Catch more barracouta and sharks. They are a menace up here. Ban all gill nets. We all have dreams. Maybe some of it might come true one day.”
