good day

made my way out to Long Beach yesterday looking for halibut. during high tide, started out fishing swimbaits in red with no luck for the first hour switch over to a gulp shad nail the first hali with in the first 30 min. after the change.
ended catching 3 total the sad part is they were all 21 inches so had to release.but never the less had a great fishing day. here's a pic of one.

here's the set up Gulp jerk shad in camo flavor with a 3/8 dart head ,lite 10lb. test . after reading a lot from some of the members articles on catching Halibut I believe that I do a lot better when I go lite on the set up lite line,lite dart head 3/8 pref. anyways hope this helps.
