The Daily Dose #362 | The Good Builder Fishing Classic 2026: Big Barra, Bragging Rights and a Bird

No guest this week, it's just Az...On Friday 30 October we held the first ever Good Builder Fishing Classic at Bli Bli Barra Park, and the turnout was way bigger than we expected for our first go. Here at The Good Builder we like to do things a bit differently. No stuffy function room, no tux or gown. Just a hat, some sunscreen, a rod in your hand and some of Australia's best builders out in the sun, because that's where the real conversations happen. In this episode I run through the big catches, the winners and the sponsors who backed us on day one with no track record: Biggest Barra: Jordy from J3 Built Champ Angler: Scott Cragg, Stroud Homes Perpetual Shield: Team Casa Ceramica Fish Whisperer: John Leonardis, Metricon (57cm mangrove jack) First Catch: Alex from James Marsden Builders, who took home a Paslode nail gun Oddest Catch: Linn Batey, Nyblad Constructions (yes, a bird) Total Legend Award: Steve from Stroud Homes' young fella A big thanks to our spodosrs Future Build, iBuildNew, Halcol Energy, Casa Ceramica, TFH, HazardCo, James Hardie, Jirsch Sutherland, Paslode, Build Launch the drinks sponsor and the food truck.
