just friendly advice: keep from handling shorts by the gills...if you flatten your hand, pinch the halibut behind the head, across the neck will get a good grip.

Torpor is the term I believe.

Not usually *always!*

yes, they go deep and get lethargic, but they will still bite.

You need a bigger boat. Looks so uncomfortable. Good catch.

Real good eating bro good catch

Ocean halibut. Is there some other sort of halibut ? 😂

Are you using a sabiki to catch squid? Size?

How many halibut can you catch comercial?

At 9:35 , what's to prevent a shark from grabbing that bloody halibut, when he's on the stringer in the water?

I also wonder same thing. You would think a seal would grab it also.

Said your fishing the ocean??? No pacific halibut where you are, or do you gotta head out deeper for those if you do???

What brand of kayak should i use ? Or do you use?

How deep you normally troll?

Just asking...... Riding around in a kayak with a stringer of bloody fish hanging off the back doesn't sound like a good idea. What would happen if a 16 ft great white came up grabbed the fish and took off?? Can you swim?...fast!!!!

Do you fish san diego that often

We’ve had a lot of wind. The surface water moves at 90% to the wind direction. Surface water is moving offshore so the upwelling of the cold deep water is effecting overall water temperatures.

Hmm, so it's also been warmer inland - La Nina winter - and the difference contrasted by cooler ocean means more offshore winds due to temperature difference? Global warming feedback loop? I probably have no idea what I'm talking about. 😋😋

Like your show me and my dad used to fish all the time

I think that desrves a 'badabing badaboom' yeas!! great job solid landing!

Caught my first legal couple weeks ago from shore her in San Diego 27”, but I did catch 4-5 shorts with in 25-30 yards of each other also. Fun fight on 12lb braid 15lb fluro leader.

You should come up here to wrangell alaska for halibut fishing

Awesome catch

Probably right. La Nina allowed the chill. It is forecast to return next winter, as well.

Nice catch , I love when Halibut are on top of gravel there markings look so cool

Definitely warming up in the area, i appreciate you not telling where your launching from😉

Quality fish Adam! Just a kayaker hanging out with the commercial boats NBD lol

As always a great adventure. Thanks

I forgot why your channel is so good thanks nice work

Nice pair of fish!

SQUID for the win ! Congrats !

I would think the halibut would be shallower to get warmer waters from the sun. They wouldn’t go deeper, the water gets colder. I bet the are like bass and spawn in the shallower waters and return to deeper waters after the spawn. Try going inland, get in the 20’ depth or even 15’. Watch RX Fishing channel in TX. He catches flounder similar to Halibut in very shallow water. I bet they are shallow.

Love your videos. Keep them coming.

Fish On!

Nice work Adam. A two-fer... not a bad day at all!

They do that for sharks, tuna and a number of other species. We don't even a scientist to do it. Sport fisherman who are willing to go through the trouble of training, tagging, and reporting would easily do the job.

I don't know when squid are around.im in San diego.woukd love to figure out how to get live squid......

ballsy move getting close to the squid boats like that

Catch & Cook Video Coming Soon? Vacuum seal sponsorship?

It would be interesting to spend few minutes interviewing a biologist to ask what the halibut are actually doing when the water temp drops instead of speculating. It adds a deeper layer of content to stand out compared to the other YT channels. Just a thought. Good vid though.

It wouldn't be a bad idea to have some of the smaller caught fish tugged with a tracker device so that scientists can track their movements seasonally.

@@robertpage2220 DFW tags them. Privately raised Ca halibut in restocking programs also get a tag which shows their migration movements . Notably one halibut tagged in Manhattan beach CA at 14 inches was caught in Morro bay at 22 inches a few years later showing they can migrate long distances in search of food and optimum water conditions.

Best depth for halibut fishing is between 60 to 100ft

I know you have a ton of gear already, but man would we love to see those take downs. It’s the climax of fishing.

Try catching a halibut that's of 60 to 100lb out of a kayak or a canoe

From Michigan! I would love me some Ocean Halibut! Like always! Nice video! Tight Lines!

Do J and P bait in SF sell a live bait?

Where do you launch out of?

Do you guys get fluke/flounder over on the west coast?

Was fishing in foster city this morning from shore in three feet of water casting lures and ten feet from me two keeper size hulibut cleared the water chasing bait,in my 60 years of fishing San Francisco bay I've only seen this a few times. Thanks!

Saw this on the beaches of Ventura and Santa Barbara counties. A halibut went airborne clear above my friend’s head and we were wading in knee deep water. Bait was flying like shad being chased by largemouth bass in a lake.

Did you get a motorized kayak? How much was that , what brand?

Haven't seen your ray fishing rod in a while. Did something happen to it?

What harbor did you come out of?

Admit it, it’s not the look but the taste of the fish out in the open ocean.

Never stop Adam, it's easy to see the passion you have. Remember, they're all good ones 👍

There is another world of kayak fishing folks. check me out!

Nice fish. Hard work and persistence paid off!
