Just back from fishing. The halibut were plentiful but small; nothing more than 40 pounds. Caught 2 big octopus too!





A great time with my son!:cool:

Nice halibut. I caught a octopus a while back at the Farralons. Reeled it up from around 300'. Took better part of an hour to get him to the surface.

Great pictures and that halibut! I miss living close to the coast, now I'm in central Calif. and miss salmon & halibut fishing. I always look forward to your pictures!

We gave the octopus to the boat skipper, he uses them for bait. We kept one beak from the biggest one. Some guy from California caught a halibut up here last week that went 480+ pounds. I've never seen one over 400lbs, even in the commercial fisheries, wow!
