abt?

[dan25]

Hey guys

I sent off an abt registration form about 2 weeks ago. It says that when registering you get some abt patches, afc dvd pack, mag, hat etc. Was just wondering how long they take to post it out to you?

just wondering if anyone knows before i ring them up.

thanks

dan

I had the same deal mate. The pack arrived yesterday minus the hat. I think they are running behind due to the hobie grand final last weekend.

What species are you going for dan and good luck

[WayneD]

You gonna join me in a bass electric on the yak Dan. Keen to get to the wivenhoe ones this year for a look and see if I can't find a few big bass.

Just got myself an espri as the stealth doesn't have room for an esky.

[dan25]

ross, i was keen on entering a flatty qualifyer comp out of my new boat with a mate this september.

Wayne, that sounds good as, i was also considering entering something from the yak, but didn't know they had kayak bass comps?, and none of my friends really have a legible yak to enter. Do you have a link to info about the event?

[WayneD]

Go to australianbass.com.au and look at the bass electric events. It will only cost you $20 to enter but you need a suitable livewell. I am aiming to attend the wivenhoe ones starting from next month hopefully. The espri has a fairly big back area on it. I am going to put a bit of ply over it and sit my esky on top of it. I have a pump with an aerator on it. The livwell needs to be insulated and be of a decent size as those wivenhoe bass get big.

[dan25]

ok cool i'll check it out. So is it boats aswell that compete? How much is an a pump and filter?. Sorry about the questions mate, just curious, and keen on entering a comp like this.

[WayneD]

Yeah it is a boat comp but they allow kayakers too.

I think my pump cost about $30 ish and I just have one of those big foam eskies used to carry fruit and veg. Internal dimensions are 500 long 300 wide and 300 high which is big enough to hold 2 decent bass.

You can also jump on the fishing monthly forum and ask any questions you have over there as that is where all the organising behind the scenes goes on.

[dan25]

ok thanks for your help Wayne. Sounds like a plan. I havent found any entry forms as yet, are they not out yet.

[justham]

You don't need an entry form for the electric comps, Just turn up and register.

Hi Dan - Do you have a link to the rego for ABT. That pack is pretty good value and once I get some more exp it would be fun to give it a go.
