Gaaaaffffff !!!!!! I love saying that !!

Halibut on the deck for Dirk !! Nice !!!!

25 pounder at least.

I'd be smiling ear to ear.

That's more like it.

I found my lucky hat.

Captain Bullard decided to try a halibut drift and Bingo !!!!

17 pounded for Tony !!!!!!!

A few minute later Tony landed another legal one.

Marty hokked and landed this one off the bow

Tony's 17 lb Halibut won day 2 JP

from Fresno, CA

Dave and angler Matt R. hold the first (short) 'but of the day.

Dave holds the first keeper of the day - barely 22 and a quarter inches!

Deckhand Dave holds angler Matt's keeper early-morning 'but!

Kim's nice flattie hits the deck - all 6 pounds of it!

Kim holds up her first-ever flat-a-but, a nice 6 pounder! Way to go Kim!

A nice sampling of the 19 halibut we ended up with on the day.
