Title: Double trouble butt funn.
Post by: gstours on September 24, 2020, 04:09:39 AM
  The other day i got a chance to take my buddy Ken out on my old plug of a boat for some halibut fishing.   We went to a spot that has been pretty good at times.  I anchored on this slope in about 150 feet of depth.  as the tide was running slightly there was a pretty good chance a good fish or two might move in or across our area.   Sure enough the plan worked out.  Butt a double on was more than I wanted. 
  Butt you have to take what you get sometimes! :D    Sure was fun.  Wish you were there!

Wow!  9 minutes 46 seconds.  That is why you are called the buttman.  That was some reel smooth action.  2 decent sized butts hooked, played and secured in 9 minutes and 46 seconds.  What a team you and Ken make.  Wayno is out of a job.  Dominick

Love the Buttman's videos!  After that "heartbreak in the salad" video great to see the bounce back! - john

That is a lot of fish to clean!
Maybe you can show us how you do that someday Gary?
