Went out Sunday 7/1 on the Santa Monica Bay with my halibut partner Brandon to try and catch a nice halibut. Its been a few years since I fished for butts but Brandon insisted that we go look for a few keepers.
Stopped by Inseine for some nice dines and chatted with John. Went out and drifted north in about 30-70ft. No, zero, nada raked baits but at 11:30am picked up our 1 and only fish a 42.6 lb / 48" SMB butt.
Weighed it in at Larry's and ran home to cut that baby up.
