Welcome to the halibut fishing reports and halibut recipe forum. Feel free to post a halibut fishing report in the area where you caught your fish and please share your favorite recipes.
Fishing was very slow--worked several areas with different baits and depths--normal hot spots were cold--even Freshwater bay, Rock Pile and 31-36 Hole.
Fished 3 long days on the water and only got 2 30lb'rs.
I understand the indians have been long lining the area for over a month and have been pulling 1000lbs of halibut a day out of area 6. Might be were the Halibut are at that are normally there.
Hope some more Halibut move in soon for this area--very slow--Talked to the game checker and he said 1 butt for 40 boats--OUCH
Waiting impaitently for the coast to open.
