I used to commercial fish for Halibut. Believe it or not, that is not that big for a Halibut. I think the biggest one ever caught with a pole was right over 400 lbs. I can't imagine that epic battle but, I've seen the pictures. Just working with them to get them cleaned is an epic workout. I miss having fresh Halibut on my dinner table. There is nothing quite like pulling fish out of the ocean, immediately cleaning them, and putting them on to cook. Delicious!

I was in Alaska fishing off a smaller island by Ketchikan, one of the locals took us out to fish for halibut, and my uncle caught one over 6ft. When we got it back to the docks, my dad and uncle had me lay down next to it(I was 13 at the time). It was bizarre to see a fish that big. I didn't realize that it was rare to see one that big at the time, but now I have that picture to show off:)

Halibut are no joke. Husband's grandfather/uncles caught a halibut once and while they were hauling it onshore, it's tail got the downrigger weights tangled around it. So this fish is pissed and thrashing about, those weights turned into a 5lb medieval flail. Nearly broke one uncle's leg, nearly smashed a hole in the boat. They managed to stab it in the collar, bash it over the head a few times and then ran like hell out of range just to keep from being bludgeoned to death themselves. No idea how big it was, likely not a noteworthy size but still big enough to kill them. Another one grandfather caught was a record breaking fish for the cove he used to fish at. The halibut was more than 6foot long and weighed at least 220lbs. I've seen the picture, massive beast. He held that record for more than 20 years.

His first attempt was on the Western side of the Aleutian Chain at a village that is so small and semi remote. They fish with aluminum skiffs. There is no harbor there and therefore no boats that were able to go out in the weather conditions that you saw in the video. I have flown out to this village and it is a beautiful place. However like he mentioned that when the weather gets bad it can stay this way for awhile. Whenever I flew out to the Aleutian Chain I always packed enough for up to a month, minimum. Born and raised out there on the Bering Sea in another village roughly 260 miles North of the Aleutian Chain.
