Welcome to The Waikato Sport Fishing Club
Big Four Tournament Information
|
|
Our Club is based in our clubrooms located in Grantham Street, Hamilton, overlooking the Waikato River and adjacent to one of the city's boat ramps and is available for hire. Monthly meetings are held as social events and to give members the chance to meet and pry secrets from outside experts. Prior to these meetings a 'magazine' is posted to members to help keep them informed of upcoming events, club issues and members' antics.

Our club is now affiliated with the New Zealand Sport Fish Council and the International Game Fish Association. This gives members the ability to enter other affiliated club's tournaments, request courtesy weigh-in's, access to other affiliated club's facilities and much more. |

Members freely admit to a diverse range of sport fishing interests: hard-core marlin hunters, successful light tackle tacticians and bottom-bouncing boaties.
Many members frequent the west coast waters out from Raglan and so the weigh-station is located at the rear of the Raglan Club premises allowing for easy parking and weighing of fish.
Key activities on the calendar include the organisation
