How the Tournament Works

  • Final Rounds: The top six states move into the elimination finals, starting in July. This round is all about seeding – no one gets eliminated just yet.
  • August Elimination: All six teams compete. The bottom two teams are eliminated, securing fifth and sixth places.
  • Quarter-Finals in September: Seeded teams face off to determine the Semi-Final matchups. No eliminations this month, just positioning for the next round.
  • Brutal Semi-Finals in October: The top two teams from September face off, and the remaining two teams battle for a spot in the Grand Final. Two teams are eliminated here, with the third-place team decided from the losing top-seeded matchup.
  • Grand Final in November: The ultimate showdown. The remaining two states compete for the prestigious title of Holder of the Gauntlet.

What’s in it for You?
Three states – Western Australia, South Australia, and Tasmania – are still wide open for their Golden Rod prizes, worth over $2000 each! These states have few points scored to date, offering a golden opportunity for new competitors. Even if these states are eliminated in the coming months, the Golden Rod prizes remain up for grabs for all registered anglers, with all registered anglers continuing to compete and score towards their Golden Rod tally until lines out on November 30… regardless of how their respective state performs. Start scoring fish now and you could win big!

For states already scoring, there’s always a chance to surpass your rivals and propel your state toward national glory. Every fish counts, every point matters, and every angler has a role to play in this thrilling competition.
