The 2010 Pirtek Fishing Challenge is on this year on Sunday April 11.
Australia’s biggest national fishing competition is open to everyone in each State and Territory across the country with again the aim of the event being to raise much needed funds and awareness for the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.
Stephen Dutton GM of Pirtek Fluid Systems Pty Ltd said “Following on from the success of last year’s Challenge, we are excited to be again hosting this event and supporting the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia. 2010 is a landmark year for Pirtek celebrating 30 years since the company’s inception.”
In this tough economic climate the organisers yet again have the support of associate sponsors Evinrude, Lowrance and Berkley. Entrants in each state and territory have a chance at winning big cash and terrific prizes. Pirtek, together with Evinrude, Lowrance and Berkley have amassed a massive prize pool in excess of $100,000. Each winning target species is worth $4,000 cash with great prize packs for second, third and junior anglers.
2010 also sees the addition of extra target species to give competitors even more opportunities to win a prize.
This year, thanks to Nissan and LG Electronics, the competition also has a major prize draw with all entrants eligible of winning, just by entering.
