The best way to land a Halibut for release has got to be the ruberized net with the marble sized holes in it. Just make sure that you are ready to deal with the fish when you net it (pliers,measuring device and camera ready and not about to get run over or run into something). You can drag a Halibut a long way with little fight, they just don't want to come up.
If landing is not necessary, then I would recommend pliers with the fish yakside if hook is easily accessible.
