"The worst day Fishing is better than the best day of work"
Well thought out it offers and I think defines categories that are clear cut and eradicates any unfairness as it becomes a personal choice which will be made based around entrants passion of category or capability but whichever category is chosen will have its own set of rules, whether it is Quads or 4WD for the beach or boats,kayaks etc for the rocks so be it. well done Chad I see that it is intendend to set in place a consistent fishing format for the nationals for many years to come and will infact help clubs hosting the Nats by eradicting any unclarity that has been there in the past and will create an even playing field for each category.
Also I would like to congradulate you on your success this year at the Nats and say thank you. I have learnt a lot from your knowledge shared from your articles in Coast to Coast, NZ Surfcasting page on Facebook and indeed this Forum. One day I would like to go on one of your adventures up Lotin Point/Cape Runaway and learn more first hand, Thank you for your efforts I hope your Ideas are acted on as you are someone who is out there doing it and doing it well. Good luck
