#145lb Halibut - June 9th Halibut Trip

The fishing is definitely picking-up in Seward.  Everyday the bite seems to be getting better and better.  The weather has been great with blue skies and little wind making for a very enjoyable day on the gulf.  We decided to make the run to the Island of Montague; a long run but worthy ride.  While doing the fishing speech we immediately hooked a halibut setting the tone for the rest of the day.  There seemed to be a fish on every two minutes.  It was a mixed bag of different sizes varying from 15lbs to 145lbs.   Overall it was a great day and everyone went home with quite a bit of fish.  We also had the leading daily derby winner weighing in at 145lbs; big enough to win that lucky fisherman a free fishing charter.  Looking forward to another day on the water with variable 10kt of wind and 4' seas...should be nice, we left them biting...FISH ON!!!
