Sami and I have been trying off an on for the last two years to fish together and finally our calendars matched up and Oman it was going to be. Josh W put his hand up at the last minute to take the last spot.

I will not bore you with all the details except to say the Omani fishery is simply off the hook! over the five days the smallest GT we caught was 24kg's yep thats a very small fish here in Oman! we also caught Queenfish, Yellow Spot Trevally, Emperor, Grouper, Milkfish and small Tuna all on topwater.  

Our GT count ended with 3 fish on the 50kg mark, 1 x 42kg, 8 fish from 30-35kgs and a 24kg fish. Incredible fishing and we got dusted up by some real monsters that would have easily hit the 60kg mark, right now our bodies feel like we have been run over by trains, long days of casting and brutal fights in shallow water. 

The fishing options here are endless, sailfish feeding on the reefs, huge Amberjack offshore and regular Marlin sightings not uncommon make this a pretty special fishery.

I am definitely coming back to Oman, maybe even in October to catch the run of huge Amberjack on jig and GT on topwater and then again next April for the monster GT season!

Enjoy the photos they pretty much sum up our adventure.
