66,4 kilos halibut!

The Swedish team from Havsfiskeguiden has been here to explore the fishing on Nordkyn

Peninsula. They where here for three days and caught a lot of cod over 10 kilos and several about 15 kilo. During these three days we caught 5 halibut and with a top on 66,4 kilo. It took Micke from Havsfiskeguiden about 40 minutes to fight this queen of the depth. Two hours later David also from Havsfiskeguiden, hooked a halibut that directly did a 70 meters run and then went loose. The day before our German guests fight a halibut for 45 minutes that later cut the line. The big halibuts seems to arrived to the north shores of Barents Sea.
