With a diverse, dynamic group of competitors, the Snapper Bonanza brings great people and big money to the area.
Competion co-owner, Dave Collard, doesn't believe it has changed much from the time it was run by the Brijevich family under the 'Snapper Classic' name with only minor tweaks to the week long competition.
Collard is excited about the opportunity to work with local iwi Ngāi Takoto as the naming rights sponsor for the next three years. Working with the iwi has seen the use of the Te Oneroa-ā-Tōhē name used for the first time by the organisers adding to the richness of the event.
Believed to be the biggest surfcasting, snapper competition in the world, the Snapper Bonanza is "maxed out" at 1000 tickets sold with 'fish-crazy' competitors from all ages and socio-economic backgrounds.
There is a focus on sustainability, with fishermen only allowed to weigh in three fish per day. While they are able to fish the legal catch, it is rare that competitors do. With such a huge boost to the local economy, protecting the catchment is vitally important.

Do you support the ban on smoking and vaping in cars with children?
The Government intends to make it illegal to smoke and vape in vehicles when people younger than 18 are inside. But police say it would be dishing out fines those who could least afford to pay them. To read more, click here

So instead of a plain ham and cheese sandwich on sliced bread, try folding slices of ham and cheese into wedges of crunchy baguette or a soft bap. Save time and stress by using Mainland’s convenient sliced cheese – available in Edam, Tasty, Colby and Swiss to suit your family’s taste.
Head to mainland.co.nz for some quick and easy cheesy ideas.
