Top End travellers can once again try their luck at winning a million dollars and other prizes in a new Million Dollar Fish competition that kicks off in the Northern Territory on October 1.
Registrations are now open for the competition, in which 101 barramundi will be tagged and released at fishing locations across the Northern Territory.
One of these barra will carry a million-dollar prize tag and the other 100 fish will be worth $10,000 each if caught.
An extra $160,000 of bonus prizes will also be awarded, making this one of Australia’s richest fishing competitions.
The inaugural Million Dollar Fish competition in 2015 attracted more than 43,000 registrations from 62 countries including 25,800 people from interstate and 14,600 Territorians.
Ten prize-tagged barramundi worth $10,000 each were caught in Darwin Harbour, Daly River, Corroborree Billabong and Bynoe Harbour.
The additional bonus prizes for Season Two include a Jayco Swan Outback camper trailer, five HelloWorld holidays to five different regions, Shimano and BCF Fishing Tackle, JMGilles Classic Lures, Accor Hotels for Le Club points, Qantas flights, XXXX GOLD cartons and a fishing charter.
