Mark Classen visited our Hawkes Bay Sports Fishing Club stand at the Home & Garden Shows at McLean Park last weekend.
He entered a weight of the Kingfish that we had on display to go in the draw to win this rod and reel set thanks to Gun City + Fishing Napier.

Congratulations Mark, we look forward to seeing your catches on your new weapon.
