Cabrillo 1/10.....GOT MY FIRST 40 OF THE YEAR!!!!!

Had another chance to see an awesome sunrise















Bait was scattered but was available













Followed the rainbow to the honey hole




























Fishing was, intoxicating































Ice chest is 48inches long and holds a 40 with no problem

I will weigh the fish as soon as my son is out of the bathroom, that's where we have our scale



Day ended with
3 brown rockfish
2 sculpin
3 legal butts (kept one)
1 40oz of Bud Light.......empty

Nice butt!!

What's the general strategy when you guys are fishing for halibut with live bait....bait and wait in one place, slow drift, paddling and dragging the bait across the bottom, etc.?

The more water you can cover while your weight is still dragging on sand, the better. If that means using the wind, slowly paddling, using current. Adjust your weight as needed. Don't think 8-12 oz is too heavy. If I'm moving fast enough, I use a 16 oz cannonball weight to stay in contact with bottom. I don't like using trap hooks unless I'm fishing mackerel, and even then I will use 2 single hooks with my rig, not 1 single 1 treble. The appropriate amount of line out needs to also be determined by watching your weight and making sure the rod loads up sometimes, but also straightens back out once in a while. Hope that helps. Maybe someone else will input. Halibut fishing can be tough but stick it out. You'll figure out what works best for you. Good luck.
