A day off from peddling,

Well I cheated a little and didn't use my PA14 (skiff was looking neglected) and hit the water out of Oceanslime and well.....good day to be out.

According to this handy-andy halibut length/weight chart, 42" comes in at 34.3 pounds.

A war bird with 50% in the wreath (half german) my other arm has a 50% worked into Celtic knots (half Irish). My foolish attempts at showing my ancestry about 20 years ago.

It looks like you were a little longer than 42".

As the length goes up, the weight increases exponentially.

Minimum legal size is not very heavy.


Nice catch! I want one of those! Seriously, I would rather have halibut for Thanksgiving
