Halibut

Many sporting fishermen love to catch halibut and cook it themselves. However, catching halibut is no easy task. They are a strong fighting fish.

Halibut are bottom feeders and you need a day chart and a sounder to locate their habitat. The edged of a bank or reef are good spots to find halibut. Use your chart to find water that is 50 feet to 200 feet deep for fishing.

If you fish on the West Coast the possession limit for halibut is a maximum of three. While there are no size restrictions, fishermen generally only keep anything under 32 inches. And remember, while you may be thinking ahead to a great dinner, always pay attention to safety while seeking your prey.
