Good advise from every one. I'll add-stay calm (as best you can), don't get in a hurry, have your landing stuff(gaff,net,clip) at hand, and always secure the fish befor you take the gaff or even the hook out. Others may disagree, but except for bigger sharks, I think halibut are the most difficult fish to land we have in our waters. They are not tired like YT or WSB are when they reach boat side, they are amazingly explosive, freakishly strong, and difficult to kill. And pretty nasty teeth. Mike
