Nomad Sportfishing - Marion Reef 2008

[Brandon Khoo]

okay - I have checked with Claire and there are two spaces left for this trip - May 17 - 23 in 2008. if anyone else is interested, please let me know.

Also, for anyone who can't wait that long, I am going to be going on a trip to Bugatti Reef with Nomad from 28/7 to 3/8. This is a new location for them and they decided to run a charter here this year after they tested it last year. This is very much a popping trip (not likely to be much jigging). Last year, they caught a lot of GTs and big reef fish like coral trout. Apparently, also a lot of mackeral around the edges of the reef. There are currently two places left for this charter.

Apparently, the other three people who booked for the timeframe of May 17 - 23 next year have changed weeks so outside of the seven of us who are currently booked for this, there are now five places available. It promises to be a great week so please let me know if you're interested.

[Brandon Khoo]

Guys - one spot left for this timeslot so if you've been thinking of it, it would pay to make up your mind fast!

The large majority who have booked in are members here so we should have a great time there next year.

G'day guys,

 Just to let you know that I will also be coming along on the trip to Marion Reef next year.

 I have been a bit of a dark horse on the forum so far, but look foward to meeting you all and enjoying my first GT popping advernture with you.

 cheers,
Josh

YO Brandon, is that the trip Duncan and the gang are on ? Lead up to the full moon etc..I was going to try to attend that as well but didnt want to crowd the boat..... 

Is their still a spot ? i can always bunk in a tender.....

[Brandon Khoo]

Pete - I can't remember exactly but Duncan is either the week before or the week after us.

[Brandon Khoo]

Guys - there is now one vacancy for Marion 2008 from 17 - 23 May available.
Please feel free to send me a PM if you're interested in more information. The group is primarily made up of our members here so it promises to be  great week!

[Duncan O'Connell]

We are doing the first week at Marion - the week leading up to the full moon.  Fully booked out though I'm afraid.   Should be a fantastic week, Can't wait to try out some of the new toys on the fish out there.

Cheers
Duncan

Cheers

[Brandon Khoo]

that's great Rob - it promises to be an excellent week. The tide is great so we only need to pray for nice calm weather and we will have the option of chasing doggies as well. I want someone (as long as it is not me!) to get spooled on a 20000!

[Rob Ciotucha]

I also hope the weather is great to be able to chase doggies too, but not the spooled part

Should be a cracker of a week.

Cheers
Rob

Has anyone on this site ever been spooled by a doggie or something similar and if so what size reel.....and so on and how did you have the line connected to the spool

[Brandon Khoo]

I've been done on a number of occasions on different reels but on deep water jigging, twice on a 20000. I've seen it happen to someone popping too. I think it may have been a big yellowfin. Hold on tight!!   

I've actually gone full circle now on the connection to the spool. I'd rather lose the line than the outfit
