Day 2 Weigh-In

Day 1 Weigh-In

On the September 15-16 weekend, 67 anglers competed in Cranka Lures Round 7 of Hobie Kayak Bream Series 10 at Woy Woy on the New South Wales (NSW) central coast. Anglers travelled from South Australia (SA), Queensland (Qld), Victoria (Vic) and the ACT to join NSW anglers in the first tournament to be held after the winter recess. Luke Rogan from Queensland won the round ($1980) bringing back to the weigh-in 6 fish for 4.65kg. Rogan had an exceptional day one and led the round by almost 1kg, with an excellent 3 fish bag of 2.94kg. On day two he hit the canals around St Hubert’s Island and landed a superb legal fish on his first cast at one entrance. He became very enthusiastic about his prospects in the area but nothing more eventuated and he had to formulate a new plan. Rogan decided to head back to Woy Woy Bay where he had had some success on a flat he had found during pre-fish. The move paid off literally, filling his bag and in turn adding nearly two grand to his wallet. This year’s most consistent performer Kris Hickson from NSW finished second ($1030) with 6 for 4.48kg and another Queenslander Tyson Hayes took out third place ($670) with 6 fish for 4.29kg. The Atomic Big Bream (1.23kg) was won on day two by Brett Crowe from the south coast of NSW. Crowe’s fish beat day one’s biggest bream caught by Luke Rogan by just 30g. The bulked-up fish weighed double the average size of the fish measured over the weekend. The Mortgage Corp Monster Mover prize went to 5th place getter Warren Cossell from Qld. 81 legal fish were brought to the scales on day one weighing 43.77kg and on day two 76 legals were caught weighing 49.69kg, giving a tournament total of 157 fish for 93.46kg. The average weight of the bream to reach the scales was an excellent 600g, well above the 10 year tournament average of 460g.
