Do you just let the bait sit still in the water? i want to learn to use artificial casue all i use is live shrimp

hey man congrats catching halibut with that rod aint easy thats sum skill

yes we kept it and yes we have switched to a soft net

we catch 90 percent of our halibut on 2” berkley gulp shrimp new penny,lime tiger,moulting

bow to the master!

i hope you kept it just because those kinds of nets split their tails which can become infected and kill the fish please get a soft small knit net for the fish’s sake. great fish and mad respect on the ultralight setup well done.

Cool. I jig a lot too. I catch a lot of spotted bay bass and calicos. For some reason i have never caught a Halibut while jigging. I usually use a berkley workm with a 1/2 ounce jighead. What setup do you use when jigging specifically for Halibut? I really would like to increase my chances and you wrote that you catch halibut on jigs frequently.

nice catch.

NICE!!!!!

nice i know you wouldnt try to catch it with 4lb test again haha

thanks and good point

No need to apologize. Chiliconnestion should try a few CHILLIS & lets see what happens…I’m sure a mouthful of FULL TRUTHS will surface !

A great fish on ultra light gear, and your only focus is his wife saying using the F-word.

And I take it you’ve never uttered a profanity in your lifetime ?

berkley gulp 2″ shrimp new penny
