EPIC GIANT TREVALLY Fishing! | Testing GT tackle at a remote coral reef (Nomad Odyssey - Episode 3)

Nomad Design Odyssey - A maze of coral reef
A unique fishing scenario of cascading waterfalls and massive current flows through a maze of coral reef. The story behind how Damon came across Bugatti reef and the pioneering Nomad Sportfishing expeditions to this iconic GT location.
Jump aboard the Nomad Design Odyssey, head out to the remote Bugatti region of the Great Barrier Reef and experience incredible topwater GT fishing with Nomad stick baits and poppers. Testing new rods and braided line on Giant Trevally and more.
Giant trevally are the biggest, meanest and toughest member of the Jack family. Targeting GT's amongst the shallow coral reef edges is one of the most challenging fishing situations on the planet. Topwater strikes and a white knuckle battle to stop them getting back to the reef and beating the sharks.
The Nomad Odyssey is the story of our ongoing pursuit to create the ultimate fishing tackle, tried and tested in the toughest fishing conditions around the world. This is our story but it’s also your story. Odyssey is the search that pushes anglers everywhere to go fishing every day, whether it's in the most remote places on earth or a familiar local river. It's the story of dedicated anglers doing seemingly crazy things in pursuit of their next fishing adventure.
Join us on Odyssey as we fish the most prolific fishing grounds the world has to offer, for a behind the scenes look at what 'Crafted by Experience' really means to us. Nomad Design was born on the Odyssey mothership in Australia’s Coral Sea, where an angler's search for the ultimate fishing experience drove our founder Damon Olsen to set up Nomad Sportfishing Adventures, one of the world's most extreme fly in fishing charter operations. Necessity was the mother of invention, with Damon required to create tackle able to withstand the Coral Sea’s intense fishing action. Odyssey is the name of the original mothership that allowed us to travel into literally uncharted reefs searching for the ultimate bite. It’s what made us Crafted by Experience.

The Big Saltwater Specialist - The Chug Norris for suuure! 🐟

[@WDavidKuhljr]

Have used the Chug Norris for the first time and we had our best ime with big Redfish at Destin Floida and Muskies in Michigan. Our favorite bait is the Bleeding Mullet 115. My Son and Grandsons have enjoyed salt water fishing since we were introduced to Nomad Design and all of your great products. Thanks for making our new favorite lures and products.

[@TrNg11551]

Loved the dartwing cool colours Great fights with the GTs

[@storm030786]

My favorite lure of this episode is the Chug Norris. There’s nothing that gets your heart pumping like a blow up on a big top water lure. When you get bit on a Chug Norris, you know the fight and fish are going to memorable.

[@vjack2k358]

Gotta be the classic chug Norris, so sick watching the Big gt wack that lure. Awesome video keep up the awesome work at nomad tackle lads.

[@billrafferty3306]

Chug Norris for the win..🔥🎣 Loving the Odyssey series

Without a doubt the, Nomad popper on an insane Giant Gt now that would be number one on my bucket list. 👍💯😁

Chugg Norris! Nothing better than watching a tuna EXPLODE on it!

[@billywolfe6513]

THE CHUG NORRIS POPPER- INCREDIBLE SRIKES. LOVE IT.

[@mickleddyfishing4986]

Riptide 200!! Epic lure While every other stickbait of this size & quality on the market costs at least double to triple the price, these things are slaying everything & going the distance for $50 rigged Keep it up Nomad!!!!!

[@shanegroves970]

Envious you have such special places to fish for some truly outstanding species. For me the dart wing is a hit, and works well in the UAE. Looking forward to the next episode.

[@davidstrand8740]

Gotta say that purple madscad or the pink riptide !! Cheers guys !

[@sethhayhurst290]

My favorite lure of the episode is the Chug Norris for sure! Bought my first one and am heading out tomorrow morning to try it out on the Tuna Coast of Panama!

I have been buying quite a few Nomad lures for that dream reef fishing trip up north qld waters. I have no Rip Tides, though. I land base cast dsrtwings for tailor and salmon in mid north coast n.s.w. Keep up the great work, Damon.

Chug Norris and Riptide 200 I’d have to say chug I use the smaller ones on flathead so they work all the time. Aerial views looking out the plane always a fisherman hunting ,planning and those pesky sharks and that popping rod wow
