31st March - 9th April 2012
New Britain Game Fishing Club
A very big welcome to all anglers looking to fish in the 2012 GFA of PNG National Game Fishing Titles to be held in the magnificent waters off New Britain from the 31st March to the 8th of April.
As those of you who have fished these waters before will know, these are very rich fishing grounds with Blue Marlin ranging in size from S to XXXL, Wahoo, doggies, sharks, Yellowfin Tuna, spaniards, GTs and etc etc.
The club waters cover a lot of country and cater for reef hunters and blue water anglers, fishing ultra light through to heavy tackle.
Tony Henderson, Oliver Bluett and their crews have been working very hard to both arrange this event and to appease the volcano gods, and we can be assured of another great Titles and fishing adventure.
Interoil and Global have again come good with lots of cash as the naming sponsors and Consort Shipping have again agreed to ship boats to and from Rabaul FOC. Many thanks chaps – it’s great working with three such super sponsors.
Elsewhere in this site you will find registration forms as well as results from previous years and a link to the GFA Facebook page.
I look forward to enjoying a cold beer of two with you at the Rabaul Yacht Club.

On behalf of the organising Committee and all members of the New Britain Game fishing Club we bid you all a very warm welcome to the 37th PNGGFA National Game Fishing Titles to be held in Rabaul, Papua New Guinea.
It has been a long journey for the Titles committee who started in 2010 in putting this event together.
The event is well underway now and the months of planning will culminate in a truly special event for anglers and non anglers alike who visit us in beautiful East New Britain.
We hope you all depart East New Britain with fond memories of fish fought and the many friends you will no doubt revisit and of course the new ones you will make along the way.
A huge acknowledgement to all our sponsors old & new alike and we would like you all to take time to browse our website to see all of the sponsors that have signed on to support this, the 2012 PNGGFA 37th National Game Fishing Titles.
A special thanks to Global, InterOil & Consort who are our event naming sponsors and to all the other sponsors who continue to support this event and Game Fishing in Papua New Guinea.
We have tried to make the website accessible with a range of downloadable forms which include the event nomination forms & membership form as well as the contact list for the tournament organising committee, so please feel free to get in touch if we can assist you in any way.
It just remains for me to say to all you anglers & visitors that the beautiful waters of East New Britain await you and we hope you enjoy the event and your time in our beautiful part of the world.
Looking forward to meeting you.
