I have now matched the Halibut bar; that I had set for myself last year at six, and now I need one more to land my 7th to break my 2019 record. I could happen!

Thank you for taking the time to check out today’s fish report!

Thanx David,

The morning started off rather slow with the 4 other float tubes disturbing the waters and the shore lines just ahead of me ... oh well, that's the way it goes sometimes, so I decided at this point to break away from these guys
GREAT CALL!.
Immediately after breaking away from them, it was non stop ...
Bam! ... Bam! ... Bam! etc. ... lol
