Some of the best Billfish Aerials taken by Nomad Sportfishing Charters.It is statistically proven that the area we are fishing in the Coral Sea and wide of Cairns and Lizard Island is the best place in the world for a chance at a grander marlin. This is simply a statistical fact and not marketing hype. The International Game Fishing Association (IGFA) keeps records of fish over 1,000 pounds captured following association ‘fair chase’ rules. The 2003 IGFA Record book states that over 70% of the grander marlin ever caught in the world were black marlin caught off the Great Barrier Reef between Cairns, Lizard Island and out into the Coral Sea.
