In this video I fish for Halibut and Rockfish in The Gulf of Alaska out of Seward, Alaska on my first charter of the season, and the first charter I have ever ran as captain out of this port. We catch a top 10 fish in my 16 year career, and I have to say quiet a thrilling experience for me.
This I certainly one of the many highs I will have of the season, and you will also be there for the lows. I am very thankful to start the season like this and I hope you all enjoy this mostly raw footage of an epic fight with a giant halibut.
Typically a fish this large is shot as it is harppooned to make things easier and safer. In this particular case the gun had malfunctioned which happens in the saltwater environment. we decided to take the chance and continue with the fishing trip rather than quit fishing becasue we didn't have a useable firearm. had we been hunting we likely would have canceled, but since we were fishing we decide that we could make do.
