100 Pound Halibut

Ninilchik Beach Alaska

Gayle and I watched a group of fishermen beach their boat and then use the rig in the back of their truck to pull this huge Halibut out of their boat and onto the beach. All the while they were doing this the fish was flopping all around and the waves were pushing the boat all over. One of the men told me later that they had been doing this all their lives. It was pretty exciting! To my friends back home, how many pounds of shrimp and loaves of french bread will it take to stuff this one?


other sizes: small medium large original auto

Unbelievable. That truck looks like it's rigged up perfectly for the job.

I don't think all of that Halibut would fit in my freezer! Makes my mouth water thinking about some stuffed filets! Unique capture, Breland. Vote
Best to you,
