I would say bay for quantity, La Jolla for quality

Still works for me! Catches Lingcods too!

The biggest thing for me and halibut, is sticking to the game plan. If I plan to fish for halibut, then I need to commit to it and not change up the plan when Im on the water.

This means, pounding the sand and spending a lot of time in the right environments and areas.

I've tried the three way swivel, but I personally use dropper or reverse dropper and the carolina rig. Typical bait is greenbacks. I do not use a trap hook, but many do.

That said, when fishing halibut, I will also run a jig or flyline setup to work the water column.

Time on the water.

Curious, what is your bait of choice for that trap hook rig?

My guess, is a nice X Large Greenback Mac.
