This event will be using the new casting rules for the 2013 NZACA Nats. ( this is a good chance to try these rules out )

Was a very good event with some decent distances set down in challenging conditions.

Surfcaster also made the jump into the 200+ club.Thumbs Up

A recent survey has revealed that only one in seven dwarfs are happy.

Thanks KC, it's only taken about 10yrs and had to do it with the a Varitas with a 100gm lead.
KC has a NewZealand record of 226mts with 100gm.
Pete Frogit NZ record 216mts with 125gm
It was a great day met new people and Western Bays gained a new member.
The next TackleTactics regional casting day will be the 5th and 6th of Jan in the far North can't wait.
