Here is an excerpt:

"Marion Reef 2007
Most of you probably won't believe what you are about to read, but it is all as it happened at Marion Reef, and the guys who were lucky enough to see it can confirm everything we say here. Read the trip report from Malcolm Crane or Chris Harrison. The highlight of the Marion reef May 2007 trips was without doubt the packs of huge GTs in the shallows that left us with some of the most jaw dropping sights we have ever seen. Mind you the sailfish on soft plastics were a blast as well.
GTs in the 70-80kg range, the biggest any of us have ever seen, were in large numbers at Marion Reef in May 2007. How about seeing a pair of 6ft (yes they were at least 1.8m long) GTs fighting over something on top of a bommie in less than a metre of water only 40 feet away from the side of the boat. Yes, that's 2 of the biggest GTs we have ever seen locked in battle over what we assume was a fish or some piece of food. It was like watching a pair of pit bulls fighting over a steak. For more accounts of our monster GT action and some great pics of everything else from Marion Reef 2007..."

We have also added some Nomad sections to the main website in which you can see reports and videos here:
Nomad Shoalwater Bay
Nomad Kenn Reef
More coming soon...
