Whether it’s a leatherjacket, trumpeter or a two-spotted demoiselle, Seaweek wants to know what is New Zealand’s favourite fish. Entries for the second annual Fish of the Year contest have been open throughout this month and close this Thursday, March 31.

Anyone who votes online for up to three favourite fish breeds, from a list of 30, will go into a prize draw to win marine-themed goodies from Wilderlab, Wettie, Charlie’s Birds, Experiencing Marine Reserves and Northland Regional Council.

The voting site contains full details of all prizes, as well as photos and facts on each of the 30 fish species vying to be 2022 Fish of the Year.
