    Most fishermen went without today. A few of the boaters were able to catch one. Steve Brott fished the beach and had to choose which fish to keep. Poor guy. He caught three halibut, I heard, but let the largest go because he thought the limit might be only one. It's two., as his wife yelled at him just after he released fish #2. Three came along. All is good. A few other caught fish today.

"Hey Willy. After 3 unsuccessful trips we finally had some success.  We were trolling hootchies with 6inch white grub tails and large tray herring. We landed a 33inch 14.5 lb halibut and lost another good fish right next to the boat. Those were our only take downs for the day, but we were very happy."

I wonder what the surf/beach halibut went after and was caught on?
