Queenslander, Martin Bowerman has traveled all over the world, the majority of the time carrying a tent and a fishing rod.

He started work as a journalist at The Courier Mail, and then a few years later took off to work in London and backpacked his way, with a tent of course, through Europe, Turkey and Morocco.

He is an accomplished author of fishing and camping books, and brings his knowledge of these subjects to Creek to Coast each week.

Martin lives on the Gold Coast and is married with two children, Melissa and Scott.
