Congratulations to Braden Hammond on winning the first-ever Hirepool Trade-Off, proving that Plumbers are the best fisho’s!

We gave 4 tradies the chance to prove their trade is the best fishos with the help of Scott and Mig from [Fishing & Adventure](https://www.facebook.com/FishingandAdventureTV?__cft__%5b0%5d=AZVkTnolvOU7a6Z4--qMD1QdDZQ0tW_QgwnEsF0gPpPNDiZT6APRBBtjBfO-W2zt73WqedHcF_kSTJHOgQSwsEp5FkEmXJAI8PQiSbzbokfnADEBR6MpMKQuGWhtmeCXRmWzZQRhHEArNmXArWlEZMIN1d5me-dppFZupQBwam10OMdrrbhQ_ZTGpIJkat7wuaY&__tn__=-%5dK-R)!

They were put through a series of challenges like trailer backing, knot tying, furthest casting distance, fish fileting and manu’s off the boat. Each challenge was scored and Braden, representing plumbers, took out first place. The 3 losers had to do a consequence of raw fish eyeballs garnished with wasabi, and Braden was such a champ he still did the consequence!

Braden walks away with bragging rights of his trade officially being the best fishos, and a trip with 3 of his mates with the boys on Holy Ship!
