A few weeks ago someone (who might have been living in a cave for the last ten years) asked on Facebook “What does SWMBO mean?

It seemed like a genuine request so TRM immediately launched a competition for readers to tell us what it really stood for.

The winning entry being drawn above by Hannah with lotteries supervisor, Didymo Dave, acting as the impartial judge to ensure everything was fair (?).

The winning entry read as follows:

Something Which Might Backfire ‘Orribly

The lucky winner is:  Tony Bishop of Auckland.

Tony is well known to many other TRM anglers as an author  (- Fishing Smarter For  Trout, Starting Smarter – Fishing for Trout).

Or you may know him for his amazing website Bish & Fish – go to TRM Links – and previously owner/operator of the largest most successful fish tackle shop in NZ.

Tony is one of those generous souls who has dedicated most of his life to fishing, one way or another, who has given so much to promote trout fishing.

So SWMBO is particularly delighted to reward him with a free weekend in his usual preferred UNIT 5  (Double queen in front bedroom, 3 singles in second bedroom, fold down double couch in back of living area) at TRM.

So it couldn’t have been won by a more worthy winner.

I hope you noticed the appropriate wording on the lurid purple T shirt… a gift to TRM from an American angler.
