Introducing CRC NZ Champion Angler!

Have you got what it takes to become the CRC New Zealand Champion Angler?

You may be a day in, day out snapper slayer, a kingfish wizard or even a bit of a kahawai magnet, but are you all three?

The CRC New Zealand Champion Angler competition – a new extension of The DB Export NZ Fishing Competition – puts anglers to the test across the board by challenging them to catch all three species. It goes like this: once anglers have caught a snapper, kingfish and kahawai, and submitted them to the DB Export NZ Fishing Competition, the collective length of all three catches are combined to make a total length. The total length is used to determine the Champion Angler on the CRC New Zealand Champion Angler leaderboard.

The prize?
The CRC New Zealand Champion competition runs until May 31st, 2021, after which the champion will be named. The winner will earn themselves a special-edition, hand-carved wooden trophy to remember their achievement by, plus a charter fishing trip with a mate in one of NZ’s best kingfish fisheries.

As things are with the DB Export NZ Fishing Comp, it’s not just about the winner! Anglers who have qualified for the CRC NZ Champion Angler leaderboard will be in the draw to win some awesome prizes courtesy of CRC, the first being a $200 CRC voucher. The winner for this is announced on November 1, 2020.

So good luck, get out there and let’s see who is New Zealand’s Champion Angler!
