About this image:
“Whoa!! I think we caught a whale”
This was the first glimpse of the monster we had fought with
as it was pulled up from a depth of 120 ft (40 m). |

About this image:
A great gaping mouth breaks the surface
Seeing the condition of this huge 79” Pacific Halibut, Dean
prepares to gaff it in order to remove the hook and the lead
weight attached to the leader line. |

About this image:
F“What do you mean that’s only the head??”
Pulling a little higher to try to reach the hook, this 79”
(2 m) Pacific Halibut’s head is lifted completely out of the
water. “We’ll need a better plan to get this thing lifted
and landed on the deck of Mad Dog Voyager. It’s WAY too
heavy to lift!!” |

About this image:
“Smile for the camera!”
As evening was approaching, we anchored up for the night
before continuing with the “Halibut event”. Hoisted up and
hanging from a mast line, the full size of this animal is
finally realized as it hangs beside Dean. Several large
coolers and 5 gallon (20 liter) containers were filled
before we were finished dressing this giant Pacific Halibut. |
