Great monthly prizes up for grabs in 2024 for Recfishwest members!

As a thank you to our cast of thousands of Recfishwest free and premium members for their support, we’re giving away some cracking prizes every month courtesy of our partners Shimano! 

Shimano has not only supported our Recfishwest fishing rules app for many years along with our State-wide fishing report, Awesome Autumn of Salmon campaigns and our SunSmart fishing clinics across WA – but they have also provided stacks of fishing goodies to award to some of our lucky members throughout 2024! 

Just by joining as a free or premium Recfishwest member, you’ll go in the running to win any of the prizes below! 

But there’s more! In addition to the Shimano prize packs three members drawn from the hat will also win an exclusive Recfishwest members’ lure pack containing three of our unique members’ lures produced in partnership with Halco as part of our annual lure design competition.  

This year’s winning lure the Fish Catcher 3000 Laser Pro 120 features in the pack too – it’s a beauty! Check out the new lure here!
