Round 5 of the HOBIE FISHING SERIES 15 at Woy Woy on the Central Coast of New South Wales brought optimal weather conditions, much to the delight of anglers eager to compete.

Despite recent flooding in the region due to heavy rainfall, the water had cleared up by the time of the event, although remnants of freshwater remained in the upper layer of the waterway. Despite this challenge, anglers succeeded in the deeper waters where fish congregated in the saltwater.

Tyson Hayes climbed to the pole position at the second weigh-in with an outstanding bag weighing 5.72kg and totalling six fish over two days. Blake Partington was in second place with a bag weighing 4.99kg and six fish, followed by Dennis Megeropoulos in third place with a bag weighing 4.76kg and six fish.

Their performance and that of the other competitors showcased their skill and determination, setting the stage for an exciting conclusion to Round 5 at Woy Woy.
