Re: Caught a halibut this week in Orange County

:lol: ha well that was my fault. I kept the fish on my stringer, attached to my weight belt. But I'm a short guy and the tail scraped the ground a bit on the walk back to my car. First time I've had...

Halibut brains are located in this circled area.

Re: Caught a halibut this week in Orange County

I use a slip tip and 40ft floatline to hunt halibut. Haven't lost a single halibut with that setup. The slip tip holds the fish every time.

But my dive buddies usually use a flopper setup. Around...

Well it's been a while since I've posted a fish report on spearboard. Crazy how much social media has grown over the ages. Everyone's using Facebook, Instagram, or some other website to share their...

Re: Banks Board setup

I use that setup for a lot of my lobster dives. Banks Boards have more buoyancy than my boogie board and the back pack straps are so so nice. Plenty of compartments to store gear in. I prefer using a...

Re: Halibut + GRUNION = $42 Dinner

I am not a fan of early morning dives. Can you find 15 lbs halibut around noon time in 1-20ft of water? Or do I need to dive deeper than that?

All I ever do is night time dives for halibut. I'd...

Re: Halibut + GRUNION = $42 Dinner

How long ago did you shoot a 50 lbs halibut?

Have you noticed more or less halibut lately compared to the past?

Re: Malibu Conditions Permathread

Do moderators exist on spearboard anymore? Or has this place become a place for lame ass poachers to brag about their illegal catches?

Re: Mercury??

I heard Chris Oak regularly ate yellowtail and white seabass in the past until he tested himself for mercury and the results came back way too high. He had to cut back on how much fish he was eating...

Re: New RPV Reef Systems taking Place: 6/5/20

Glad to hear of a new reef being created!

Also Jeff that is a scary freakin California bill. If they doubled the size of the MLPA closures there would be barely anywhere left to fish.

Re: Opening Day Lobster Season 2019 - 2020

I did alright on lobster opener. Saw a handful of people diving the same spot I was. I know a couple of them got skunked out. Felt like this lobster opener was a little rougher then normal swell wise.

Re: NEW Spiny Lobster Commission Approved by Governor.

Because most of the commercially caught lobsters in California are sold to China. They don't sell California lobsters in Californian restaurants anymore because they can get more money by selling it...
