Halibut on the West Coast of Prince of Wales Island are abundant, hard fighting, and delicious.  Halibut fishing is excellent the whole season and we fish for them everyday.  Sometimes limits are caught while salmon fishing and othertimes you pull out heavier tackle and try for a larger grade.  Fish from 15-30 pounds are very abundant and are truly the best eating.  However, fish in the 100 to 300 lb class are not uncommon. Fish this size are very exciting to battle and will test your strength and stamina. 

When specifically fishing halibut and bottom fish we use quality stand up rods from G. Loomis combined with durable Shimano reels loaded with 100 lb. spectra line.  We fish either chunk bait or jigs depending on the conditions and size of fish we are targeting.  The work you put into reeling up your limit of halibut will be appreciated once you start enjoying all the delicous filets you take home.
