Well the rounds have gone and been run and won by some of the best in the business, now its down to end games. KFA was lucky enough to qualify for the Grand Final with both Jason and Craig excelling at the St.Georges Basin round. I received one of the wildcards for the event and so did Paddy so was blown away all four of us will be attending. Forster is a wonderfull place to fish for Bream but for the first timers in the area it can be a little daunting. While prefishing bans are in place there is an official prefish on the Friday before the event, giving the tournament hopefull a chance to purge unprofitable spots and develop a game plan.

We look forward to reporting on the event and of course competing, it will be a class field and given we are all good mates it will be a weekend extravaganza like no other. Fishing Monthly, ABT and Hobie have a downloadable .PDF file with all details on the event. Its worth a look, even if your not competing as it highlights the effort the entrants, sponsors and affiliated buisness management it takes to make a Grand Final possible. To be honest I secretly hoped the event would be a little closer to home, but given the class of Bream Forster seems to turn on, plus the valid structure available, it was a very wise choice (With a past ABT Hobie legacy).
