Another great video. When I was out two weeks ago with my friend i rigged him up with a chrome and green flasher. Mine was rigged with a chrome flasher. He caught 4 keepers, 1 bass, and 6-8 shakers. I caught 2 keepers, 1 bass, 1 shaker for whatever that’s worth.
Hey Chris, always love watching your video's I've learned so much from just watching them, thanks so much bro! Been trying to get my boat sea worthy for almost 2 years now. She's pretty close now, got a trip planned to brookings in july to try for the coho and whatever else is out there.
I fished for Halibut in Alaska,,,,,i used a Chum bag tied off to the anchor chain. I bought can's of Tuna packed in Oil,,,,,,,,pour that into chum bag with other goodies. The oil leaves a trail for them. Just be careful a Killer Whale doesnt grab your chum bag and start hauling butt like happened to us. Bigger the bait,,,bigger the Fisk also worked. Good Luck
I fished at Deep Creek, Ninilchik for my Halibut,,my Dad caught a 284 lb down there. I hear the fishing has gone down at Deep Creek,,,Charters are like 350.00 now and you can keep only one. My biggest was 150 lb,,,but we caught 100 lb all the time back in the day. Mainly in 80 to 100 ft deep water
when I take my kids out (7 & 9 yr old) I stay on channel 16, that is coast guard. I show them how to use it every time we go. So if something happens to me its ready for them to get help. Boaters are on 19 generally in sf bay/ocean. 9 & 11 are used in different areas. 68-69 seem to be a common ones too.
@@ChrisPfish2 Thanks…I never associated outgoing tide with warmer water. I’ll certainly keep that in mind for the future. Seems water has warmed sufficiently in central SF Bay as I’m starting to see good halibut reports from there in addition to those that have been coming almost exclusively from the south bay.
Why are you netting 20" shorts and then letting them flop on deck? Anyone with your experience should be able to recognize a 20" without bringing it on board.
oh come on dude. I see you have been watching for years. Lame comment, you know I take good care of the smalls. I thought that one might of had a chance. It was 1.5" short. Did you see the 3 smalls before that one, no comment about releasing them on the side of the boat i see. Go take your shit some place else
@@ChrisPfish2 I have commended you in the past for good release practices. But really, why bother with a fish that might barely hit 22 inches? Your freezer must be absolutely packed with fish...you really need a 22" halibut? I still think influential TH-camrs like you should use and promote barbless hooks.
@@andrewbland625 So you would rather see people take 32" vs a 22"? I think thats the stupidest philosophy. The big ones are who we want breeding. If keeping a 22" prevents you from keeping a 32" later because you have limits that is good in my book. The big ones are good for showing off and pictures, boost that ego. I havent kept as many halibut as you must think. My last video was first limits of year and its May. I fish about once a week. I like giving fish to my family, friends and employees. I dont have a freezer full. I see you have a youtube channel, what happened, no one watched so you decided to criticize others on the platform.
@@ChrisPfish2 I agree, but all I'm saying is anyone with a bit of experience can recognize those small ones and doesn't need to net them. The halibut are taking a real beating this year and it will only get worse as nobody will be targeting salmon. Here's hoping DFW lowers the bag limit. Yes, I have a TH-cam channel. But I prefer quality over quality, hence less content. And by all means, release those 32 inchers!
@@andrewbland625 My point was you have watched me long enough to know I take good care of the undersize fish. I have always talked about it. You can tell in the video I was hesitant on the size, I wasnt completely sure in the water it was short, I get them out of the net as quickly as possible. That one stopped flapping. If they dont I grab there tail. I hope they lower the limit as well.
Only game around must get old doing it over and over lame as heck I know fish em for years but now it’s every boat around doing the same lame as. Did I say lame I think I did
you must have a lame life if this is what you do with your time. Watch youtube videos to hate. Try to be happy and not angry, you will get more out of life.
There are no hallies in San Fransisco Bay, it's your largest F L O U N D E R since cali hallies are not hallies but flounder that are vely close relative to the fluke.....
I am really impressed with the wonderful moments you have created in this video. The fishing scenes are really exciting. I wish I could be your companion to share these beautiful fishing scenes.🐋🐬🦭🐟🐟🐟🐟🐠🐠🐠
Big time I’ve fish in the bay for years and in the past lots of small fish this year will put a end to bigger fish next year will suffer because of these TH-cam fools
Another great video...I like the trash cans they
can be used in an RV too

Dude, you don't need no stinking hat! Master Class in session.
Good job buddy 🎉
Caught a 25 pounder pretty close to that spot last year (2022)!
Lol yeah right
Taking my son out- what channel do the boats run on to feel safe! Thanks for the videos. Tom

@@ChrisPfish2 alot of the kayakers tend to use 68/69
I saw you got a bigger net after your "net too small" episode :-) What size is it? Is it a Beckman? 4 ft handle?
I gotta tell you , that flasher is a dodger 😊
Greta day on the bay!! What size kill bag do you use?
Nice video, and catch. What rod & reel r u using?
What pole holders are you running?
🎣🔥💯👍
Another informative vid, thanks! Do you prefer an incoming tide versus outgoing when halibut fishing SF Bay? Reasons?
early season outgoing because it warms water up. After that the incoming because it cleans the water up visibility wise.
@@ChrisPfish2 Thanks…I never associated outgoing tide with warmer water. I’ll certainly keep that in mind for the future. Seems water has warmed sufficiently in central SF Bay as I’m starting to see good halibut reports from there in addition to those that have been coming almost exclusively from the south bay.
@@aProudOG Can’t wait till next year when all you catch is under side fish oh yeah and I will be commenting big time like you said lots of boats

How much weight are you using, Sir?

Aloha, that’s a dodger silly.

Totally look different without the hat, but nice Butt
