Birthday Barndoor
Set up on Spanish on a low rig with a squirt on the bottom, just of the kelp at the NW corner of the condo. I was trying for a WSB. So my low one with the Spanish starts to brrp, brrp. Start to wind it in and starts pulling line, get some head shakes, so I thought it was a Yellow. Get it to color and it is the biggest Halibut I have ever caught. Came up real easy, gaffed him just below the gills, still no fight. Put him in the hatch and he goes mental, thought he was going to blow thew hatch off. Anyway stoked to have some success and so was my wife. 41" and just over 30lbs. |

NIce B-day flattie. Congrats.
Flatties almost aways go mental when you take the gaff out of them. You want to make sure they are secured 1st. Nice job. |

Holy crap!
That's a nice Halibut, so what are those numbers?
I'm just kidding, bro. Hold that secret to yourself and pound the same spot as soon as possible! I'll be looking for you .
