I went to a nearby harbor to watch the resident seals, and a couple of guys had just landed a 50 lb. (25 kg) halibut. They began to clean it and it really drew a crowd...enjoy!

That's pretty fun! Eagles and seals? Cuute. And do you have pictures of the halibut? Never heard of a 50 pounder before.

Sure, 50 lbs is common. It's the 300 pounders that really get the attention ;)

It sure does, although I would prefer it cooked!

Nice photos, and thanks for sharing. Even though I would like to, I don't get to the coast often so I enjoyed them.

I see you live in California and the reason you probably never heard of a fifty pounder is because in your waters you have California Halibut that only grow to about forty pounds.Oregon
North have Pacific Halibut that grow much larger.
