I bought some from them a while ago.<br><br>3 or 4 inch in shallow water. 4, 5 or 6 inch in deeper water.<br><br>Here are a few technique articles:<br>http://www.swimbait.com/techniques/halibut-edwards.htm<br>http://www.swimbait.com/techniques/halibut-wolf.htm<br><br><IMG SRC="http://www.swimbait.com/gallery/photos/port_17.jpg"><br><br>36 lb. Halibut caught by Matt Russell off Ledbetter Beach in Santa Barbara, California while fishing aboard the Calico Hunter II.
