Rheem Off-Site’s ‘The Great Tradie Fish Off’

Trade against trade, company against company, mate against mate – it's time to prove you're the best in your crew at what really matters: catching fish!

The inaugural Great Tradie Fish Off is kicking off soon, and there is a lot to get excited about. You’ll get a chance to win individual, company and trade honours – and it’s absolutely free to enter! 1,000 tradies have already registered and have snapped up the free entry pack, which included a custom measure mat, and a packet of Catch soft-baits and jigheads. You can still register and participate if you have a suitable fish measure.

How does it work?

Register as an individual, for your company, and for your trade. Every fish you enter into the comp in March will automatically be allocated across those three categories. For the duration of the comp, you will be able to watch all three live leaderboards to keep up to date with how you, your trade, and your company are tracking.

Sustainable Fishing

This is a measure-only competition, so to enter a fish, you will need one of The Great Tradie Fish Off Measure Mats or another approved measure mat (a list of approved measure mats can be found on the "Rules" page). When you catch a fish you’d like to submit, simply line it up on the mat, take a pic, and enter it on the website. Each angler can submit one fish per species per day, so choose wisely! You can then decide whether you keep the fish to feed your friends and whanau or release it to swim another day – that’s the beauty of measure-based comps.

Team Captains

Five companies have bravely put their hands up to captain their trade throughout the competition. These are the guys who will accept the prize on behalf of the winning trade at prizegiving, or be the somewhat gracious losers if their trade doesn’t pull through.

NZ Builders will be, you guessed it, representing the builders – and rumour has it they’ve already booked a trip to The Three Kings, so they’re not mucking around. Plumbuilt have taken the reigns for the plumbers, while Scott Electrical jumped at the chance to keep the sparkies in line. The automotive team are in safe hands with Repco at the helm, and last but not least, Kiwi Diggers are going to be looking for an upset win for “The Other Guys” – if you’re a subbie or unsure where your company fits in above, then check “The Other Guys” box and do this team proud.
