First 22# Halibut on the Hobie! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Trophy hali for sure! What a nerve-racking experience that ended in an adrenalin rush and a smile. I usually get "sewing machine" leg afterwards and start shaking like a leaf. I also pulled my 1st bigger hali up on my lap when it threw the hook and embedded it in my scrotum. My rule #1 now is NO HALI LAP-DANCING ALLOWED! I gaff/string up/bleed in the water before loading on stern. Congrats and thanks for posting.
