Just came across this link. Good news, be nice to feel like I'm following the rules with the Talica 50's now. I'm assuming from what I have read previously on here the NZSFC will only start this from beginning of next season? http://igfa.org/News/ruleschange2017" rel="nofollow - https://igfa.org/News/ruleschange2017 ------------- http://www.legasea.co.nz" rel="nofollow">

NZSFC had at last AGM approved to ratify this once IGFA had so changes should cone into effect on the date mentioned. NZSFC ruling would have taken place on 1 June 2017 if IGFA failed to adopt cganges regarding braid. |

Yep bloody good alright. Good to see the change date has been noted for April 1st. No change to the nationals rules for this year. Then it's all on for young an old. ------------- www.waikatosportfishing.co.nz |

Awesome logical decision. Can see my gear getting a shake up after this season now that we will be able to use this in tourneys. Might have a few Tiagra's for sale. |
