Well, look what I found!

Quick trip to La Jolla yesterday am- launched at first light. Bait was tough to get- got one Spanish so I fly-lined it immediately and searched for more. I always use a heavy sibiki with a megabait for a weight...good thing. Saw a mark at the bottom in 60 ft of water-- Surprised by this 19lb halibut just off of the kelp.

Yes, at the bottom of my sabiki. Got another one a little smaller in 125 ft of water two weeks ago on a hookup bait...

That's awesome and is why I use a metal spoon (crock) style lure for a weight on my sibiki too. One can never know and only hope.

Congrats on a very efficient outing.
