Anyone here caught a Halibut?

[rmoody79]

This spring while haddock fishing with clam snot on Pink/white hi-lo rig. NWC of the bank. Released alive and well to grow bigger. Momma can't be to far away!

36in to keep, saw one off of stone ledge last summer come up in a gill net

In the spring look in 120' of water. Muddy near rocky bottom seems to be the best bottom in the spring. Last one I saw was 2006 Biggest I've caught was 140#'s but I've seen fish upto 256#. Summer time 300' and deeper sandy as well as muddy bottom works. Remember 90% of the fish live in the same neighborhood.

I can't believe this thread has lasted this long without a "just for the halibut" joke

Frankly scallop, I don't give a clam!
