New personal best halibut. Late afternoon dive with Nate (Spinal Tap). Shallow water diving, it took me for a ride before I could get my hand in the gills to subdue it. |

Found this while scouting to see if the halibut are coming in.
I've put about 8 days in at this point, and this is the only one I've seen so far. |

My plastic hawg trough broke, so I used some scrap wood and a measuring tape. As usual I murdered this fish with a 7' Gat-ku polespear, used a flopper tip. |

Great day diving with icecold and Adam415. Some of the hardest paddling I've ever had to do. In the scariest water to dive in. My first halibut! Took me two years to find. Okay vis. Shallow water. |

First and last halibut taken by freediving in 2014.
Between finding spots, diving, and cursing it took a few days and even with really good intel on which areas to hit it still more than 10 hours to get. |

Not an upgrade but a special dive for me. Got three thick 30+ inch fish in less than an hour while traveling down south to see my in-laws. Convinced that Shicken put me right on top of these 96.5 inches of butt. Thank you Marv!!!! |

After an hour and a half in the water, just as I had begin losing hope, I spook a nice halibut. Almost squeezed off a shot but held off. Gave a couple hard kicks toward the direction it swam in and dove. Found the same fish trying to settle down and finally put a shaft into it |
