2010 Saltwater Fly Fishing Challenge
Held from Crab Claw Island Fisherman's Village at Bynoe Harbour.
The challenge is to catch seven species of fish in three days.
Held annually by Darwin Flyrodders Club. This is a measure-and-release competition where the aim is to catch each of seven target species - queenfish, trevally, mackerel, barramundi, tarpon, snapper and salmon, all of which require the anglers to seek out the species at different stages of the tide. Anglers have three days to fish, with only two people per boat. Points accumulate for the capture of each species and the fish caught are scored on a centimetre-per-point basis.
