Dave Bradley has drawn his guiding experience from many years of fishing with some of northern Australia’s finest anglers in the north’s premier locations as well as guiding areas all over Queensland north into PNG.
Dave is passionate about and feels right at home in the shallowest of water targeting and sight fishing his favourite species. He has shown his passion for shallow water by being the only guide in the country to operate a purpose built flats boat, a Scout 170 Costa. Experiences drawn from 11 years of guiding clients in a multitude of waters, both inshore flats and offshore Marlin and GT work puts Dave in front of the crowds.
Searching for new waters and improving techniques and doing it with a casual yet professional attitude is his approach to guiding.

home' sightcasting or guiding clients onto fish in skinny water, and generally adheres to the principal 'if I dont see it, I
dont want to catch it' . He runs a purpose built Galeforce 4.8 specifically

of species that they have lifted aboard over the past three seasons - tuna,
marlin, permit, blue bastards, Golden Trevally, and barramundi to name a
few. He is optimistic, upbeat and positive and likes nothing more than
seeing a happy angler hooked up to quality fish .
Right from the start of his guiding career Nat has focussed heavily on
Saltwater Fly Fishing and for the past 7 yrs has made a full time living out
