Huntington Harbor Halibut fishing
11/16/13
A blast from the past.
I was fishing Huntington Harbor in my float tube on this day. The winds were pushing 5kts+, current was strong, and the tide was LOW! Horrible conditions if you ask me.
In the bay a cunning angler focuses on structure for his quarry as most fish are located around structure for security and food. On this day it was a little different for me. I did the usual by targeting dock pilings for NADA. Feeling desperate, I turned my sights to other fish species in the bay switching from lures to live bait. Towards the end of my trip I made a long cast into the middle of fast running channel. I slowly retrieved my Big Hammer swimbait back my tube using a slow retrieve and BAM! I got a nice hit! After several minutes of fighting this fish ,and few flops with attempting to sink a lip gripper into its mouth, I landed this beast!
