LOWRANCE SOUTH AFRICA Issue 24 | Page 6

After all the festivities, they were more than ready to face the deadly serious business of competition - in 15 different disciplines. During the next week, Facebook and other social media platforms hummed with news and updates. In this issue we will give an overview of how some of the competitions went and their results (some were still pending at the time of publication). Our Lowrance SA staff attended two competitions. Mikala and John were stationed in Sodwana for a week – at the Big Game Trolling Championship. They offered back-up assistance to all skippers and anglers – regardless of the electronics on board - though the majority of the boats involved were Lowrance-equipped. Steph and Keith spent the week at the Vaal River in support of the participants in the Black Bass Championships. Before we give their impressions of these two major events and others – take note of this important news! 13 Episodes of TV coverage, with footage from each discipline, are to be aired on Super Sport’s Channel 8 – around mid- March, so keep your eyes peeled! You (or at least someone you know) could be featured in one of the programmes. Lowrance SA congratulates all the organisers, competitors, sponsors and volunteers for their part in making the Fishing Games 2019 such a huge success. You did South Africa proud!! slide
