Kodiak Halibut Fishing
CHECK OUT THE PICTURES BELOW. All these trophies were caught on our custom Jigs on 65# or lighter tackle, in SHALLOW water. EXTREMELY fun and easy to reel up compared to heavy setups. I fish light tackle, with 2-speed PENN Reels, you set the hook, you reel 'em in!
Captain Jeff spent 17 years fishing the TROPHY Halibut Capital of Alaska (Dutch Harbor-Unalaska), and knows a thing or two about catching giant Halibut! Here in Kodiak is no exception. We fish shallow rock piles and Reefs to score our big catches.
There is a very distinct thrill in hooking a 5-foot+ 'Butt' in less than 100 feet of water on a jigging pole. It could best be described as setting the hook to a truck on an overpass as it speeds away... a tremendous thrill not soon forgotten!
Make no mistake, I'll go where the fish are, but if we can get 'em shallow, on a Jig, that's what I'm going to do.
