Monster!! Southern Oman is definitely on the bucket list. After doing a bit of research it seems like a place that you don't get a lot of shots but those that you do get tend to be monsters??
 
Anyone else here on the forum gone or can recommend it?
 
I have emailed Ed (the Pom LOL) and he seems like a good dude and very helpful etc. Hope to get there in the next 3-4 years!

As you might know, you don't catch many monster GT, but fishermen fish there as they look for life time experience with 40 kg - 60 kg GT.

Ed of No Boundaries is a fisherman. He knows how to take care of other fishermen.
