Biggest Halibut - JasonMcMillin - 01-17-2008

What is the biggest halibut you have caught? mine was a 186 lbs but I know they get way bigger than that and was woundering if anyone has caught any big ones.

No hablibut on this side of the hill, I wish though. LOL The closest thing we've got over here on the east coast is a 5 pound summer flounder. Great eatting though, just doesn't have the poundage. [Tongue]

My biggest one was from Alaska. 270 lbs and it was 4th place for the jackpot. Oh well! I guess I should catch a big one next time.[cool]

Nice, I would be very happy with that size of course after all the work it takes to get it to the boat.

California Halibut are what I have fished for. Not those great big Pacific Halibut. Like the difference of a dog vs a horse.

I have a biggest of 32# and my son in the 2005
MDR Halibut Derby got a bigger 36# halibut

Also check out the [url "http://www.HalibutDerby.com"]MDR Halibut Derby[/url] if you can
fish for them come April 5th and 6th

Great prizes are available and we have a big party
with a big raffle and awards party on Sunday in the
park in Marina Del Rey.

I submitted this fish for a IGFA Jr class record and it
was approved! Nice certificate for his wall!

So that is my best halibut story.
