Today we had the Sedlaks and their friends from JBER.  We left the dock with 31 people and headed out to Montague for some spring Halibut fishing.  In the morning we were targeting large Halibut and it was unsuccessful.  Some days the big ones just don’t bite!  I guess the fish have to win every once in a while.   Fortunately, we had a very patient and understanding group of fisherman on board.  By 2:00pm we had not yet received a bite from the flat fish we were pursuing.  We had tried two spots which have produced great fish the same time in years past.  The fish happened to be in shallow and we were out of time.

At 2:30 we pulled anchor and moved to a more productive spot.  It took a few minutes to get the bite going but soon the Halibut showed up.  Within 2.5hrs we had limited the boat with a nice average of 20lb Halibut.  By this point these guys were happy to just catch a fish so the 20lb ‘buts were a saving grace.  By 5pm the boat was full with 66 Halibut, and the group morale had changed.  Overall a great day of fishing! Miles and I had a great time with all of you.  Thanks for coming out with us and I hope you can make it down next year!! FISH ON!!!
