I'm not entering anything but PB's or other noteworthy catches. This was a pacific halibut I caught at Shelter Cove on a long solo salmon trolling mission in the fog where I could only manage a silver. I put a big herring on the bottom just south of the Whiss hooked to a barbless mooching rig and got this fish in the big net in 5 minutes. |

Downgrade to 27.75 as claimed length of 28" cannot be verified due to angle of picture. In addition, the mouth appears open on this fish, resulting in an additional 1.5" deduction to 26.25".
