Sweet report Brandon! Awesome to read and great to browse through the Shoalwater captures.

Nomad sounds like a 5 star operation - great guides, fishing, scenery, food etc. They have a great business out there.

The Shoalwater areas look incredible. Looks like there are lots of fishy areas to explore.

Thanks for the great report - can't wait for the segment on Creek-to-Coast!

as long as weather is half decent, you won't have any trouble finding fish to stretch you out. You may have a lot of trouble landing some of them though  ;D

Hey Neale, I am on the same Shoalwater trip as you next year and, like you, am counting down the days.

It will be my first Nomad trip and my first GT adventure, so I am looking forward to hopefully shaking Brandon's hand for all the online tips he has handed out, and then getting amongst some!

Hi Scott - if you want to be sure of catching up, ask Claire to book you out on the first plane.

Yeah cool Brandon, I will mention that to Claire.

The countdown is on and now I am just hoping for a bit of luck and good weather - the last couple of decent trips I have been on (Weipa and Townsville) have been badly affected by the weather, but next year I have 3 lined up before June - Port Stephens for hopefully my first Marlin in late January, Shoalwater in Feb and New Cal in April, so if I get decent weather on those I will consider myself even with the fish gods
