Arne, good to see you're out there still killing them. This is my first and only legal sized butt that weighed in at 32 lbs. On it's first ascent to the surface it did a U-turn and with a slap of the tail almost jarred my glasses loose. I gaffed and secured her with a stringer on the second time around and then proceeded to beat the hell out of her before bringing her aboard. Thanks again Adi for the checklist on how to land a halibut.

There's something about the threshers fight, the crazy speed, wild change of directions, monster jumps, and then getting cracked by the tail at the end that gets the heart thumping.
Different fish, same fun. |

Maybe his hand was caught in the rakers, or he was just bleating, but this was my fav of the year.

That guy is practicing some high notes. Deep Purple’s Child In Time, you know that part when they start building it up.
Gills... my thumb was stuck in the corner. Gills snapped on to my thumb... Love hurts Art. Love the pic. But that's for The Best Photo Biatch 2007 category...

I was visiting Hong Kong for business and saw people fishing the dirty water near the convention center. I asked one of the fishermen what they were catching, he didn't speak english but handed me his rig and showed me what to do. He had a weighted treble hook at the end of the line and some bait about 6" above that, some kind of cheese that was hard like clay. You drop the line in the water and when you feel something nibbling on the bait you lift up quickly and snag the fish with the treble hook. They were taking these home to eat. Later I saw a crowd gather around one of the fishermen to check out his whopper. It was 3" long.
