I got this 22 incher, largest trout for two days. They have some 30 inchers inthe system, it was good fun, but a lot of indicator fishing.

It was a fun trip and glad to be back in Hawaii, big ahi, 200b plus are around, going out this week. Mems

Nice trip Mems. Thanks for the report.

So since you're the fish cooking, poke, ceviche master, what is the best way to prepare Halibut?

Sauteed with butter, capers and fresh dill squeeze of lime. Don't overcook it. Pretty good with furukaki on it as well.
