Looking for a boat Hire this weekend! We have you covered. Hit up MBBH today! ๐ฃ
IF YOUโRE planning to drop a line this weekend, why not join in on the Coopers Blue Water Classic fishing competition at the same time?
The competition is set to lure a large number of entrants with a total prize pool of $40,000.
And everyone is welcome to register.
Darwin Trailer Boat Club general manager Alex Ehrlich said the competition was an opportunity for anglers to get together.
โThis competition really tests an anglerโs skill and local knowledge,โ Mr Ehrlich said.
โIt is a true test of an angler, but also a real family affair with mums, dads and kids just going out and having a bit of a hoot together.โ
The competition will run this weekend from Friday to Sunday.
Participants must register and thereโs a $200 entry cost.
The entry fee includes DTBC membership for a year and a buffet dinner for two at the presentation night on October 23.
Mr Ehrlich said any fish that were left over from the competition would go to Foodbank.
โThey freeze them quickly and distribute the fish right around Darwin โ itโs the one time a year some people get fish,โ he said.
A briefing night will be held at the Darwin Trailer Boat Club and will be the last chance for interested anglers to register.
