ABOUT THE COMPETITION

On the 17th of February our lines went slack. We lost a brother, a son, a fiancee, a best friend, and a dam good fisherman.
 
Joshua Tingey, at 28 years young, had a tragic paragliding accident on Mauao. To honour his life and love for fishing we created a fishing competition in his name to raise funds for youth in the Bay of Plenty community.  On the 19th of February 2022 we will run the competition for the fourth year. Last year we had 145 anglers, 40 boats on the water, and raised over $8500.
