Two Bays Snapper Challenge 2026
Five ways to fish it. Work out which one you're in before you enter — it takes about a minute.
Read this first
Your division is set by how old you are on Friday 30 October 2026 — the first day of the competition. If you have a birthday during the comp, you stay in the division you started in.
Pick yours
Open, Junior and Young Gun are the age divisions — you're in one of those three. Team and Club run alongside, so you can be in one of those as well.
18 and over
The main division. Your longest snapper decides your placing, and every Open entry goes into the Lucky Prize Draw.
12 and under
For the young ones. Same comp, same bays, judged against other juniors rather than the adults.
13 to 17
New this year. Old enough to be fishing seriously, too young to be up against the Open field — so now there's a division for it.
We may ask for photo ID at presentation day to confirm age.
2 to 5 anglers
Fish with your mates as a team as well as for yourself. You're still in for every individual prize.
There are extra rules for the Team Challenge, and you have to read them before you can enter.
Fish for your club
Open, Junior and Young Gun entrants can nominate their fishing club when they enter. Every eligible fish you catch adds to your club's total, and the best club takes the Club Challenge trophy.
Still not sure?
Everything else — where you can fish, minimum length, how to submit a fish — is the same for every division. Read the main rules.
Entries go through Ticketebo. One entry covers the full nine days. If you're joining the Team Challenge, read those rules first — they're different, and they matter.
