We will fish for halibut, black rockfish, yelloweye and lingcod. (Lingcod opens July 1st) The record lingcod caught is 86 pounds! This trips is considered the best trip to try and get limits of each species possible. We do not target large halibut on this trip in order to spend more time on multiple species of fish. Sometimes though you may get lucky and catch a barn door! Limits based on current regulations made by ADFG.
