2010 Hobie ABT BREAM Kayak Events
(Scott Lovig - Last Years Grand Final Winner)
Building on the momentum of the successful BREAM Kayak series, Hobie Kayaks is proud to announce the schedule for the 2009/2010 Hobie BREAM Kayak Tour.
What started as a small series in Queensland and NSW has rapidly expanded into a tour which incorporates events in WA, SA, Victoria, Tasmania, NSW and Queensland.
Although competitor’s fish in their own craft for the qualifying events, the Tour will culminate in the ABT Hobie BREAM Kayak Grand Final, where all qualifying competitors will fish from identical, factory supplied Hobie kayaks – complete with recirculating livewells – to create a truly level playing field.
ABT Director, Steve Morgan, identified kayak tournaments as an area of significant growth. “Kayak tournament fishing is inexpensive, accessible and healthy way to satisfy an angler’s competitive urge. There’s no telling how far kayak tournament fishing can take you. For instance, the 2009 BREAM Kayak Champion, Victorian Scott Lovig, earned a place on this year’s Australian Fishing Championships (AFC) TV show,” he said.
Hobie’s Steve Fields in even more excited about what the season will bring. “The timing of this series is just right. The momentum from the last series coupled with the excitement of the successful launch of the tournament-designed Hobie Pro Angler will ensure that this series is successful.”
ABT BREAM Kayak events are unique in that anglers catch bream on lures and then keep their three, biggest, legal fish to present to the weighmaster at the end of the fishing session.
Anglers get to see first hand the quality of the bream their fellow competitors land.
