Another day at halibut paradice!

Today John and Peter where out one halibut fishing and already a minute in on the first drift john first lost a halibut then ten minutes later hooked on that was measured to 118cm (20 kilo according to the halibut list). On the next drift John had a small halibut following his jig all the way up to the boat and then stroked, after five seconds on the hook it went loose and surprisingly enough it stayed and played with the jig. John gave the rod to Peter and after the halibut had played with the jig it decided to strike and this time I was stuck. On a couple of drifts later peter lost two halibuts and then succeeded to bring a 90cm (8,7kilo) in to the boat. On the next drift Peter got a really heavy bite on his Predator Tail. After a hard fight we brought the great halibut into the boat and measured it to 140 cm (37,5 kilo). All halibuts where released back to grow bigger!

Later this week we will release a short video of this days fishing!
