I may find that out to about the flounder. We did pass on the sand sharks because they said the meat was like jelly. All this talk about fish makes me want to go catch some summer time blue cats!

Did the same thing in 09! 3 day trip and 100lbs of fillets a person! Try using your salmon guts, makes the best halibut bait! Have a financial goal that once I hit that I will go every year.

Halibut was caught out of a 25ft Bayliner. Tried to tie it off but couldn't get the boat to plane had to haul her in and tie her head to tail. Shot through the head 3 times and harpooned. Have the whole fight on Video. 3 70 quart coolers full of meat. Went every year from 1985 until 2002. We had cabin in Taku Harbor.

I have fished all over alaska and the best I have found is around Gustavus.
The gene pool could use a little chlorine.

Your poor boat looks so dry and lonely Rick!
