 Gonna need all the luck you

 Gonna need all the luck you can get. I've been having a crack for the last couple of years with another 'blow in' team and best we could get was a 3rd placing. (Plus champ female and most bills tagged 2 of the 4 fishing days)

 

Would you be targeting the billfish or gfaa line class section?

Top idea!Jump on board boys,

Fri, 2014-03-07 22:41

Top idea!

Jump on board boys, if daddymac has lived in Dampier for that long, beating armatures like Cotty and Jas will be a walk in the park. Cover yourselves in glory! 
IGFA line class is the section that you will need to fish to beat these guys. Piss easy I reckon, how hard is it to catch a fish up there?
Pretty narrow field as well.....
I'm surprised more local karratha/Dampier oaks don't have a crack, it's about $35,000 in prizes and would be pretty easy to win judging by the low number of boats that enter compared to other local comps like Gamex.
Mad if you don't!

 Last comp we entered cost

Thu, 2014-03-13 13:21

 Last comp we entered cost $800 In entry fee's plus the crews air fares etc and all the other crap we brought for it. Day1 it blows 35 knots, 4hours later it's canceled with 1 fish caught.  The year before we won it but had to drop half the prize money back into boat repairs caused from the horrible weather! 

 
Never again for us! Can take 4 ppl to the montes for 4days for the same price :)
 
By the way this was not the comp Pete is talking about
