Out fishin my man
I meant out fishing WITH my man. Went fishing out of Dana Point today, offshore winds at sunrise settled down and got warm fast. Nice guy at the bait barge but a crappy scoop of 80/20 chovies and dines. My husband fishes a lot but hardly ever brings home any fish. Today's only excitement for me was this big BENDO It was obvious that it was a shark and took some time to tire for an easy release. Thankfully a local fisherman named Dave P. took pity on us and we will be eating halibut tonight. Maybe next time my partner will catch something to warrant taking his piclol |

Dave P
Sounds like you were aided by Dave Pliska. He is a halibut fisherman of reknown in the DP waters (and possibly elsewhere as well).

Great bendo shots!
First post and a front page! Welcome to BWE. I believe that the California halibut have the David P. character ranked high on their most dangerous enemy list.

It was a leapard........about 30-40 pounder. I was a little nervous as she took off backwardslol She made short work of it, but a lot of "It's too heavy!"
