Entries were good in this year's Radio 2ZG Fishing Contest, but the catches were not quite so good. The winners are, from left, John Bunning (heaviest fish), Kerry Barnes (runner-up), Stephen Morrow (smallest fish), Bari Henry (consolation prize), and Brendan Marriott (most fish).

Well, not quite, but the family is, so to speak. These two Australian terriers, belonging to Mrs V. Logan and Mrs C. Nickerson, are champion Monson of Tarandale, and Tinee Town (Kit) imp. Victoria, Australia. It is interesting to note that Tinee Town's grandfather, Tinee Town Talk-bac, was sold to interests in the U.S.A. recently, for just over $3000!

From Neville Robinson, Owen Road, comes this pic of his brother David, who won $100 for the heaviest wild pig in a North Island competition, run by Bergs Game and Seafoods Ltd. With the pig, which was entered in the competition through the Patutahi Store, are David (left) and Waru Herbert. David's dog, Bruno (RIGHT) had one big fight with the pig and ended up having 32 stitches inserted after the tussle.
