Nelson’s strongest man Nelson personal trainer, Tom Armstrong, lived up to his name by winning the Vortex Spas Top of the South Strongman competition, held over two bicep-bulging days at the Nelson A&P Show over the weekend. But according to Tom, he wasn’t the strongest man in the competition, because many of the eight events also required speed, endurance, an iron-fingered grip, as well as brute power. After two days of lifting logs, kegs, stones, spas and dumbbells, flipping 200 kilogram tyres and pulling trucks, Tom prevailed, winning five of the eight events and finishing sec-

ond in another two. “It was a tough weekend,” says Tom. “The log press was the hardest because it was so round and difficult to get any sort of grip, but the dead-lift was the biggest gut-buster - that was 480 kilograms so it

was the heaviest weight. “But it wasn’t just about brute strength. There were guys out there who could squat 260 kilograms they were more powerful than me, but you also needed all-round strength and

endurance and a good, strong grip.” Tom says it also helped to be able to train specifically for the challenges, because many of them were as much about technique as strength. Now that he is officially the strongest man in the Top of the South, Tom says he may consider entering other strongman competitions. “I thought I’d give this one a try and see how it went. It was really cool so I might have another go at one, although I’m pretty sore now and will have an easy week first to recover.” Photo: Chris Symes/Shuttersport.

Public save drowning baby

A baby boy, blue and limp after falling in the family swimming pool, was brought back to life by members of the public after his mother ran onto Tahunanui Drive screaming for help. Anita McGregor, of Richmond, was driving to Nelson with her sister and a friend at around 11.45 on Sunday morning, when

she saw a woman come running onto the road with a limp and lifeless baby in her arms. “I saw the young girl come running out with bubs in her arms screaming for help, so we just slammed on our brakes,” says Anita, who had completed a first aid course earlier this year. “He was pretty blue. He felt like a

dummy really, he was just flopped over my arm. There was nothing, no life there.” Anita took the baby – who is 11 months old – off the mother and went inside where, with the help

of two other women, she performed CPR on the baby and helped the baby breath again. “It must have taken at least a minute, but it seemed so long. Finally he started crying and breathing,” she says. Anita says the parents of the boy were distraught as they worked on their son. “She was just

screaming really, I cuddled her to say ‘it’s ok, he’s breathing’.” A St John ambulance arrived and took the baby boy to Nelson Hospital. A spokesperson from the hospital said on Monday that he was in a stable condition.

“I think close to the main street would be great, maybe down some of the alleyways, it would be nice to brighten them up.”

“I think the money should be re-directed more into community work and our youth.”

“I think we’ve got enough art to be fair, I think the money would be better spent on other things.”

“Probably either of the two main carparks.”

Another one of the ladies who helped perform CPR told Anita that she had just finished a first aid course last week. Police attended the scene and spokesperson Barbara Dunn says the boy was found face-down in the pool by a family member. Nelson City Council says a recent audit of the property’s swimming pool found several items that needed addressing. “The owner was made aware of

what was needed and corresponded promptly with both the council and his property manager to have the items addressed,” says the council’s communications manager Paul Shattock. He says the incident brings home the importance of having swimming pools fenced properly. “Even where barriers are provided, they must remain and continue to be fully compliant to ensure safety of occupants, future occupants and visitors to houses with pools,” he says.

Nelson City Council is investigating a petition by Monaco residents to allow dogs on its reserve, after two residents were fined for having their dogs there off a leash. Monaco resident Betty Watkins was at the reserve several months ago, exercising her neighbour’s dog, when control officers turned up and warned Betty for having a dog off a lead. The officer also issued a $150 fine to two other residents for the same infringement. The complaint was made by a visiting mother, who was with her two children. But Betty was furious and started a petition to allow dogs on the reserve and off the lead. She collected four pages of signatures and last month two other residents, Chris Keay and Lois Morgan presented the petition to the council. Chris says the dogs are all well behaved and she was shocked that residents would be fined for having dogs on the reserve. “We as dog owners down here are very responsible and we always have our dogs on leashes

when we go around the peninsula but when we get to the park we let the dogs off. There’s about half a dozen, they all get on well and it’s fine. “We are very conscious about what’s going on. Not one of us would think about taking our dogs on the reserve if it was being used for a picnic or something like that. We are very responsible people here and we’re dog lovers.” She says the complaint was “stupid”. “It’s all happened because this one woman, who doesn’t live in Monaco, decided to have a whinge.” Councillor Brian McGurk says a report on the reserve is due

Until then I won’t comment too much, but there are a number of competing activities down there and I have a pretty open mind about the options.” Chris says if the rule doesn’t change it will mean people like Betty won’t be able to take her neighbour’s dog for a walk. “Betty can’t take the dog for a walk on the lead because she has a zimmer frame. The council could quite easily fence off the playground, which isn’t a big area, or just make the whole area one of the parks in Nelson where dogs can be off the lead.”

Chefs are known for being ultra competitive, and for having a wicked temper, but two of Nelson’s top cooks reckon smacking each other in the face won’t be that easy. “We get on really well,” says Garry Ford. “But I’m sure that as soon as he whacks me I’ll get angry.” Garry, the owner of restaurants Ford’s and Panama, will face Hopgood’s owner Kevin Hopgood at the Fight 4 Victory charity boxing event next April. The pair are the latest confirmed fighters for the event that raises money for the Victory Boxing Charitable Trust, along with Nelson councillor Tim Skinner, who will line up against Wakefield’s Richard Martin. Both chefs will be in their 50s by the time the fight comes around and Kevin joked that it should be dubbed the Grey Power fight. “I hope we get a Grey Power discount on the corporate tables.” Programme director of Victory Boxing, Paul Hampton, says it’s fantastic to have the pair line up for the cause. “We’re really excited about having them on the fight card. They’re at the top of their field and really successful men, so for them to get behind Victory Boxing is great for us.” Already, 35 of the 50 corporate tables

Garry says he was approached to take part by Victory Boxing trustee, Barry Galbraith, and was immediately keen. “I’m looking forward to getting really fit. That’s the part that interests me,” he says. “But stopping drinking will be hard,” he joked. Neither men has any history as boxers but both were excited about taking their rivalry in Nelson’s restaurant scene into the ring. “We’ll make sure the knives

are put away and it’s just boxing,” says Garry. Both said that helping raise money for the trust was also a major motivator. “Barry and Paul do such great work, I’m really keen to support that,” says Kevin. The other fighters confirmed are sergeants Justin Carter from the army and Stefan James from the police; hairdressers Hazel Trethowen and Libby Brumwell; lawyers Emma Riddell and Michelle Byczkow; Pomeroys general manager Hayden Thompson and Nelson Weekly editor Andrew Board.

Scientist earns research grant A Cawthron scientist has secured a $300,000 research grant, one of only a handful of successful grants to go to a researcher from outside of the country’s six main universities. Dr Kirsty Smith received her grant from the Marsden Fund earlier this month, which is administered by the Royal Society of New Zealand on behalf of the government. Kirsty says she is delighted “and shocked” with the grant, which will see her study the effects of global warming on sea squirts. The research will see if species can adapt to climate

change fast enough to avoid extinction. Kirsty and her colleague, Dr Francisco Prosdocimi from Brazil, will grow sea squirts in the laboratory, and then alter their environment by varying the temperature and salinity of the water over six-week periods. They will test whether this leads to changes that increase the sea squirts’ ability to adapt to their changing environment, and whether any modifications are passed on to future generations. Kirsty says the sea squirts are a pest in our waters, but are na-

tive in Japan. “It is currently unknown if species can adapt rapidly enough to cope with the predicted changes associated with ocean acidification and global warming,” she says. Cawthron Institute chief executive, Professor Charles Eason, says the award is excellent recognition for one of the independent research institute’s many promising young scientists. “This project is a great example of how Cawthron scientists apply excellent science to topical challenges or opportunities that have real relevance for New Zealand.”

People from around New Zealand and Australia have helped the Tadmor community raise $35,000 to save its church, just in time for the historic building's centenary to be held on December 7. The Anglican Diocesan Trust was planning to sell the disused church earlier this year after it received an offer from a private buyer. But the Tadmor community objected to the sale saying it wanted to keep the church and its adjacent cemetery open to the public and started raising funds to buy back the church. The Anglican Diocesan Trust had put a price tag of $35,000 on the church and last month the Tadmor Church Society reached that target. "We were always optimistic from the start that we would raise the funds, because we received so much support," society treasurer, Brent Hodgkinson, says. Brent says they received donations from one woman who said "my grandmother is buried there", while another donor said her grandmother donated the stained glass window that remains in the church today. The window was donated in memory of her husband, a doctor, who died in a motor vehicle accident near the now-named Doctor's Creek onSpooners Saddle. "As soon as the word got out we had calls from everywhere. We had a donation from a Nelson couple who got married in the church and we even had one 

Brent says the response was so overwhelming they raised enough money to repile and paint the church and still have some left over for a maintenance fund. He hopes the church will become a focal point for the community, after it was deconsecrated in a service by Bishop Richard Ellena on November 16 so that it can be used by all denominations and for public events. Tadmor Church Society chairman, Bruce Moffitt, whose grandfather donated the land for the church in 1914, says he is delighted that the church is

remaining in the community. "The people donated all of the materials and everything to build the church, so it belongs to the community. A lot of people are still being buried in the cemetery and we want to keep it operating - we want to make sure people with relatives buried there can still visit.” And now the society is planning to have a service to celebrate saving their church and commemorating its centenary. "It was consecrated on 28 November, 1913, so we are having a special service on December 7," Brent says. "We have sent out special invitations to all the people who made donations and will be publicising the service so anyone is welcome to attend."

Locally Owned and Operated

Nelson is on the hunt for some new public art and the city has $100,000 to spend. The money is being put up by Nelson City Council, with Arts Council Nelson managing the projects. Two of the sites intially signalled out as needing art are the new Maitai walkway and central city pocket parks and walkways. Arts Council Nelson is calling for expressions of interest for public art responses. Proposals that are sought may be those fully funded through the Arts Fund and also those which could attract “match funding” from the artist, community or other stakeholders. Works for non-prioritised sites are likely to be given more favourable consideration should a percentage of “match funding” be found by the artist or community toward the proposal. The final number of proposals selected will be dependent on their quality and available budget restraints. Lloyd Harwood, ACN community arts manager, says the brief has purposely been left open. “The idea is to encourage artists to think outside the square. We hope to attract a wide range of innovative and creative ideas which will all be considered.” Nelson City Council community services committee chair Pete Rainey, says the call for public art should lead to some exciting, accessible and original additions to the Nelson city landscape. “Public art plays an important role in enhancing and enriching the quality environment Nelson offers visitors and residents. This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to the vibrancy of our city centre and we look forward to the response from the creative community.” More information is available at www.acn.org. nz. Closing date for applications is Tuesday 16 December 2014 at 4pm.

City has $100,000 for new art

TUESDAY 25 November 2014

Three new seats have been donated to the community by the Rotary Club of Nelson West to enhance some of Nelson’s best walkways. The seats, located alongside the Orphanage Stream walkway in Stoke, were constructed over three weeks by the Rotary Club of Nelson West in conjunction with donated cash and materials. The family of the late Bernie Stevenson, from Nelson, donated $1,000 to the Rotary Club of Nelson West this year to be used within the community. As the club had constructed and donated seats to the community in the past, they approached Nelson City Council

we’ve got we'your ve got

and asked them to provide suitable locations for three more seats. The council suggested the Orphanage Stream walkway area and supplied the club with engineering plans. Nelson mayor Rachel Reese, unveiled the seats at an official opening ceremony last week. Over 20 people attended, including representatives from Gibbons Holdings who donated wood, Tata Steel and Topliss who supplied steel, metal struts and tubes and Stoke Garden and Landscapes who provided the concrete. Rotary Club of Nelson West president, Nigel Sutton says the club has received positive feedback from residents who are already enjoying the seats.

Dodgy dentist: Re your front page article on the dentist Nick Smith. In 2010 I had the misfortune to have him totally botch a number of my teeth. I had to threaten legal action against him to even get a refund for the dreadful work he'd done. It cost me another $15k, six months of treatment

PENKETH PROPERTY LAW

with specialist Todd Gracia (often under a microscope), to try and save my teeth. He did a fantastic job. I got the princely sum of $795 back from ACC as it could only be proven damage was done to one tooth. A number of the great local dentists tried to get the Dental Council to strike Smith off because of my case and many others similar. Good job he's finally gone. The guy was reckless, greedy and incompetent. Ricky, Nelson.

He has stuffed up mine and my family's teeth! My dad ended up going to another dentist (not in Nelson) due to severe pain in a molar. They pulled out green, rotting packing from his tooth!! Between us all we have spent thousands! Jasmine Lucas.

Cake van a pleasant surprise: I was surprised and pleased when buying a dessert at the cake van in the Bridge St. pocket car park behind WestPac bank in Nelson. The cakes are as good as any one can buy at the best pastry shops in Vienna. It is a credit to the young person who has started this business. She is not just a baker, but an artist.

Stock effluent site in Richmond: A new stock effluent plant on our doorstep and the first we know is a pic in the local rag of it already under construction. Awesome public consultation. (Via text).

Car parking in and around the Richmond Mall will be easier this Christmas after the mall leases space at the Richmond A&P showgrounds for staff of mall businesses to park their cars: Cool initiative I say. At least staff can get from the parking spaces to their workplaces safely, especially if it's dark. Janelle Thorpe. Great idea! Keryn Sheppard. What a great idea, thumbs up. Heather Waters. Great idea. I had to drive around for ages today to get a park just to get groceries. Nikky Lohmann. Approximately seven minute walk each way, think of how many healthy workers at the Mall.... brilliant idea especially for the paying customers, and yes shuttle is available!! Ka Pai to the organisers of this fantastic initiative for Richmond!! Sarah-Hope Bailey. It would be a great idea if you catered for all the staff that work at the mall, I'm sure(I know) there are people who work outside the time a shuttle is going to be running, what are you doing for them?

Hugh’s final fling Locally Owned and Operated

Andrew Board Editor

PO Box 1503, Nelson editorial@nelsonweekly.co.nz

When Hugh Neill moved to Nelson in 1974 he didn’t know a soul. So, when he saw an advert seeking actors for a local play he decided it would be a great way to meet some new people. But it wasn’t just new friends Hugh found, his passion for acting started with that advert and has lasted four decades and seen him perform in hundreds of shows. Now Hugh is preparing for his final shows, the first of which will be at the Mudcastle this Friday and Saturday night. He then has a show at the Playhouse in March and a performance at the Theatre Royal in May. “I’m just getting on a bit,” he says. “I’m drawing the pension now so it’s up to younger people to pick it up. It takes more energy than people appreciate. They think you just front up and perform, but there is quite a bit of preparation and it’s just getting harder. Some of them are quite physical.” Over the years Hugh has performed his interactive shows to thousands of people. He draws on scenes from Blackadder, Fawtly Towers and the Rocky Horror Picture Show. He says for his final fling he will be doing a “potpourri of entertainment”. “We’ll start with a murder-mystery and then it will morph into Fawtly Towers, then Blackadder and finish off with the Rocky Horror. Usually I would just do one of those, so it will be quite different.” Hugh has been doing the interactive shows since 1990 and had his busiest year in 2007 when he did 80 shows. “I love it but it’s very audience dependant.

Hugh Neill has been heavily involved in Nelson’s theatre scene since the mid1970s but he is preparing for his final shows. Photo: Andrew Board. If you have a good audience, it’s fantastic. I’ve had a few horrors but most have been tremendous.” The worst show he’s done was at the Rutherford Hotel for a conference of 200 people, of which only four were female. He says mid-way through his show the rugby started and the room emptied. “That was rather frustrating and heart-breaking,” he jokes. The best, he says, was at the Playhouse where he was told by the owner to leave one woman alone because she’d had a tough time lately. “So I just kept an eye on her and I could see her gradually relaxing as the evening went on, and by the end I had her up on stage. We were dancing together. She revealed to me that she had had breast cancer, had a breast removed and had been through chemo and this was the first night where she felt she could come out. She said it was the best therapy that she could have asked for.” Over the years Hugh has worked with eight different actors who played Basil Faulty and almost as many who played

Sybil Fawlty. He says saying goodbye to the shows will be sad, but he’s loved entertaining people all over the country and acting had became a total passion. “When I first arrived in Nelson in 1974 I didn’t know anybody and I just happened to see this ad saying 'actors wanted' for this play at the Theatre Royal, and I thought this would be a good way to meet people. Being a guy you’re almost guaranteed a role and I just loved it." Although the passion for theatre remains and will mean Hugh will still be in the audience at most of the locals shows, he says age is catching up on him. “The trouble with theatre is as you get older it’s a damned sight harder to learn the lines. When I was in my 30s I thought I was bulletproof, I could learn a whole script in two weeks, now it’s two months and then you still don’t have the same confidence.” For tickets to Hugh’s show this weekend email info@mudcastle.co.nz or call 543 2113.

3D printer wows Nelson students

It’s not very often you get to create a design on the computer, print it and eat it too, but that is just what 120 children did when they attended a robotics and three dimensional printing workshop last week. The seminar, run by Mindkits, a robotics and physical computing company from Auckland, was held at Broadgreen Intermediate School. It saw children printing designs using chocolate ink onto bread instead of the usual paper. “3D printing is not fast because it prints one layer at a time, printing in chocolate allows the kids to see the results instantly, cause and effect is a really powerful teaching tool,” says Tim Carr, CEO of Mindkits. The children were given a piece of grid paper and worked on a series of lines and codes to make a design, using a game similar to Battleships. The Tinkercad computer programme generated the design and sent it to Cura, a writing programme that prepared the 3D file for printing, using chocolate.

“The overall theme is making robotics and 3D printing fun, the hardest thing is to find something the kids can hang their hat on, so we make the sessions about problem solving, which is a powerful teaching tool,” says Tim. Tim has run robotics and 3D printing courses throughout Auckland but says Nelson has seen the biggest uptake, which he suggests could mean that Nelson is underserviced when it comes to technology. “I am amazed at how focused and eager the kids are here in Nelson. Perhaps principals of schools need to open up more to the opportunities for technology, the demand is definitely there,” says Tim. The workshops for primary, intermediate and college students were held over two days and organized by The Ministry of Inspiration, a group that supports young people in their academic learning across the Top of the South Island. The Mindkits team will be back in Nelson in April, for further information, go to The Ministry of Inspiration website at www.ministryofinspiration.org.

Duke &Cooke This year, Duke & Cooke is celebrating 50 years of valuing properties in the Nelson region with a look back on the history of the business and its establishment in 1964. Charles Duke was a well known identity of Nelson, especially remembered for his trademark bow tie and hat. He had a vibrant personality and was one of those people who everyone knew. Charles was born in Dunedin in 1888 and started his career as an architect in 1914. After working as a journalist in Australia, earning the Mili-

Peter, born in 1920, was also well known for his sense of humour, quick wit and passion for sailing. Duke & Cooke have grown significantly from its days as a two-man partnership, now employing seven valuers and four administration staff. From its initial beginnings to today, Duke & Cooke have been at the forefront of the valuation profession in the Nelson region. While

Everyone here at Duke & Cooke has always been treated as part of a team that is focused on getting the best job done for our clients.

Murray is a born and bred valuer, and is currently the longest serving director, having been with the company for 31 of its 50 years. “When I left college I didn’t know what else to do. I had a brother-in-law who was a valuer and it looked like a pretty good job; a bit of indoor work and a bit of outdoor work. That’s what appealed to me at that stage, and it’s been a good decision.” Because of the specialist skills required for the job, many valuers around the country have only ever been in the profession, but it’s the challenge and change of the

The rain appeared the morning of the first day of the 121st Golden Edge Nelson A&P show, however, the sun came out to play on Sunday and so did the people. Show manager, Annette Robinson, says that although Saturday’s rain kept people away in the morning, Sunday’s sunshine brought in the crowds. “Sunday was absolutely fantastic, I haven’t seen those kinds of numbers ever on a Sunday, the whole day had a great atmosphere and we couldn’t have asked for more. "We received great feedback from our stallholders and we are very pleased with how the show went,” says Annette. New to the show this year was the Vortex Spas Top of The South strongman competition, which saw both men and women competing in events such as a log clean and press, lifting of a huge atlas stone and a 25 metre hand-over-hand truck pull. The more traditional competitions of wood chopping, sheep shearing, equestrian, dog trials and animal judging remained strong with the same number of animals registered as in pre-

Police report

with Area Commander

Steve Greally

We're coming into the time of year when people involved in the cannabis cultivation business are getting their plots established. People growing drugs in your area, or in areas you use recreationally, could be a risk to your property. Every year during the cannabis season we get increased reports of crime, such as theft of electric fence units, theft of fuel and other items from farm sheds. The Police operation is already under way gathering information about where people are establishing their plots. Information from the public is essential to this work and over the coming months we will be following up on those leads. If you see something that doesn't look quite right - such as people heading into the bush with gardening implements or containers of water - you're probably right in thinking they are tending cannabis plants. My advice is to get any details you can about the person, including a physical description and details of the vehicle they are driving. You can call your local Police Station with the information, or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Your information could make a difference.

Good fishing has been on offer this month, according to the anglers that Fish & Game rangers have been conducting licence checks on. Plenty of well-conditioned trout have been observed in the upper and lower Wairau River and tributaries, Upper Buller tributaries, Maruia River, and Wangapeka/mid-Motueka Rivers. Rumour has it some large, 10 pound-plus, fish have also been caught this season. Popular family day fishing options within a reasonable drive of Nelson include the Nelson Lakes for boat enthusiasts, or alternatively the Motueka or Rai/

Pelorus rivers, which can be a good option combined with a family picnic and/or swim as summer progresses. The Rai and lower Pelorus rivers hold rainbow trout which can be susceptible to mid-day lure fishing, the preferred time for family trips.

RATS RATS RATS! When the first immigrants arrived in Nelson, many found they had to share their bedrooms with rats that were so plentiful that even poison had little effect. The native

rats, or “kiori”, had no fear of man. Alfred Saunders, an early settler on the Fifeshire, described this plight: ‘At night we had to keep a stick in hand to thrash them away from the candle.’

SPORT Race raises funds for hospice Locally Owned and Operated

TUESDAY 25 November 2014

www.shuttersport.co.nz

A charity sailing event in Port Nelson raised money for the Nelson Tasman Hospice Trust last Sunday. The race was a joint effort by the Nelson Rotary Club and the Tasman Bay Cruising Club. Various local businesses sponsored teams of their employees and guests to race as crew on-board yachts provided by the TBCC. Spectators were also sponsored, and they were carried on-board launches belonging to TBCC members. Nine yachts took part over a course in Port Nelson, which took around an hour and a half. Four

spectator-carrying boats were also in the water, amongst the watchers was a group of thirty-seven from "Big Brothers, Big Sisters" organisation. Commodore of the club, Tam Hazan, says everyone enjoyed themselves. "Certainly most of the participants had never, ever been on a yacht before and all seem to have enjoyed themselves. [There were] huge smiles and excited chatter when they returned to TBCC clubhouse, after enjoying the exhilarating conditions during the event." Prizes were kindly sponsored by Mitre10 Mega, and presented by Mayor Rachel Reese.

It was run in preparation for the 2014 South Island Championships which will be held in Dunedin on December 7. Nelson Marching will be sending two teams, the under 12 years and under 16 years and both teams have been training for the championships since July. They will participate in the review and inspection routine, technical drill routine, set march plan and display march. Marching Nelson will be recruiting new members in March and April next year.

Plenty of reports coming in now of snapper being caught around the bay. I have heard of two fish over 30 lb caught on set-line and fish up to 85cm on rod and reel. With set-lines being a highly productive method of catching a good feed of snapper, we would also like to mention the practice of catch and release. I personally am not opposed to anyone catching their personal best biggest snapper and keeping it to get a photo, the actual weight and also to show to the wife, kids or family. However, in saying that, as a club we encourage our members to "fish by length" by measuring the length of the fish for our competition and also for a nationwide competition. This gives us the chance to catch and release these bigger prime breeding snapper after taking a couple of 'live' photos and, of course, measuring. It can be extremely satisfying to watch those big fish swim off into the depths right by the side of the boat. So, to aid with this method, if you choose

to release some of the bigger ones and keep the “pannies” as your eaters, then try to only leave your set-lines down for about an hour. This will keep the fish in a reasonable state of health for release and still be plenty of time to catch them if they are in that area. Release at the side of the boat in the water if possible, or use a net to gather the fish and contain it while the hook is removed, wet your hands with saltwater, get some shots and then let it go over the side. Kenepuru has had a couple of decent fish caught recently and plenty of seven gill sharks are still around. Rabbit Island is fishing well for those with kayaks, kontikis, kite long-liners and nets set out at low tide. There's a fishing competition on Saturday 29th hosted by Tasman Bay Anglers Club, it’s not too late to enter up until 5pm at ENL Nelson, or simply go for a look at the weigh in, down at the Motueka boat ramp on Saturday at 4pm. Enjoy the awesome place we live in by getting out for a fish from boat, wharf or land.
