FAQ’S
Q. Where can I get my Liquor Legends Tournament mats x2 from? A. Doug Burt Tackle World Unit 11/8 Centre View Dr, Biggera Waters QLD 4216 Phone 07 5563 8746
Q. I’m retired, and my teammate still works, so I also fish without them (always with someone else offshore). Would those fish I catch count? A. Yes you can. If you and your team member fish together or even separately at times, it’s still the largest fish caught by either of you in that month that will score points.
Q. I’m not always on my own boat either. Other club members take me out, or I may take them. My teammate might also go with someone else. We may also take charters to go out wider. Do those fish count? A. Yes any fish you catch whether on your own boat, another boat, a charter, or land based can be counted toward your team, any fish you catch, whether on your own boat, another boat, a charter, or land-based, score.
Q. I was asked to include boat details and insurance. What should I do if I fish with multiple boats, both inshore and offshore, and also plan to do a charter? A. We ask for insurance details to capture this information in case of an incident involving your boat. But you can fish from any boat or be land-based.
Q. Can I use any Bragmat, or do I need the official Club Bragmat? A. Yes, you need the new Club Liquor Legends Bragmat to measure your fish. Contact Jason for Details 0414535792
Q. Can I run a proper spread if fishing offshore for pelagics? A. You can run a spread of 4 rods.
Good luck to all competitors — we look forward to seeing plenty of great catches posted throughout April!
