Took a buddy out to the Big Bay for some change of scenery since LJ has been quite dreadful lately.

Just so happens that the Halibut bite has been solid. I ran into a couple buddies, Chad and Ryan and decided to tag along as a group and cover some serious ground.

Long story short ended up 3 nice legals( one provided by Ryan ) and the group ended up with 6 total, the biggest being 20lbs.

I haven't targeted Halibut before so this was my first as well as my buddies.

Went out the following weekend for one little short-18 inches and ton of short bites.

Butter Poached Halibut is da bomb!

Now its time to get on the bigger grade offshore.

Just slow trolling dines on a spider hitch dropper loop( 1.5-2' to the weight & 3-3.5' to the hook. owner 1/0 ringed bait hook.). no stinger either, so you can imagine the amount of short bites we got.

Split a kayak scoop with a buddy and man the way these fish rake baits, its almost better to just get your own scoop.
