Gary it was hard to estimate the size of that butt.  What is your estimate of the weight?  good job as usual.  BTW you are doing a better job of keeping your head still.  :D Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Great to see you release the big ones. All halibut over 60# are spawning age females. I never keep anything over about 50# anymore. The big ones are a hassle to process and not nearly as good on the table.

I agree the ten pounders are the best eating, that's why they're the only ones I catch!  I don't even let the big ones eat my bait.

"I don't even let the big ones eat my bait.'    Now thats smart fishing :D

It may not be very productive,
but it's sure going to be interesting!

:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D
