Great Day Halibut and Bottom Fishing - BIG Hali Released

[Serengeti Charters]

Out today doing some exploring...IT PAID OFF!!!!! :sHa_shakeshout: Great halibut fishing and limits of Lingcod to 35lbs and Snapper.

Went after halibut first, couple chickens to start off then they just kept getting bigger and bigger, 51lbs, then 60lbs, then 70lbs (AND still legal at 125cm! We released one that was long and skinny and probably only about 54lbs but over length so shows it depends on fish). Double header of the 61 and 60, then double of the 70 AND A 125LB Halibut which we released after taking a few pictures. This was only through half the tide...needless to say if we stayed there after we tagged out I'm 100% certain we would of got into even more over 100lbs as usually longer you wait bigger they get. Very exciting stuff. Here are some pictures.

Remember, we have a smokin' deal on prime time spots for salmon, plus all the halibut and bottom fish are in primetime as well. Throw me a PM or call to discuss a trip in June or July! :) :sHa_shakeshout:

Why must people post pictures of these superb fisheries? When we in Alberta struggle to catch a decent sized fish. Let alone being able to catch one for the dinner table. I'm so jealous. Nice catch boys!!
