Congrats Brian! That's the right way to break in the new ride. Great looking yak by the way.
Man, I recognize that new promar net and Gopro setup. Your wife was right George, that buff makes you look a lot better. Covers up just enough. :D
Nice outing guys.
Were you doing your laundry at the same time......nice halis.

Did you notice what happened as soon as you stoped supporting the fish by the gaff both times? Great fish George, glad you got to take it home.

Yes, and I did........and do you know what's the first thing or person that came to my mind when that happened?

Wow, that game clip bent quite a bit under the weight of that halibut. I would never know that myself since my fish never break into the double digits.
Nice save George

My $5 clip works just fine. The only mistake that I made was letting the gaff slide out of its belly.

That is because you needed both hands for your clip lol.

Its aluminum....that's why it bent so easily. Nonetheless, I got it at Home Depot

I must say fishing out of a Hobie is pure joy!!!!! Thanks for all the encouragement to join the Hobie family....and to top it off and catch a 10lb 31in Halibut on the Maiden Voyage!!!! Guess the Orange Aventurine color is really good luck...

.....or maybe it could have been George's luck???
Regardless here is the end result....Look forward to many more adventures
Cheers
