Gunther Hansel landed this 482 lb 13 oz 8' 2" World Record Halibut after a almost 3hr battle off the Western Fjords Iceland this Monster was big enough to serve up almost 1000 individual fillets


I'm sharing this guys trophy butt Holy shit it's huge. I could only dream of catching something like this. My cousin has gone halibut fishing in Alaska and caught a 60lber but that's a dwarf compared to this thang.

Bump fishing thread I'm jonesing to go fishing

1000 individual fillets of heavy metal poisoning? What a way to go, though.

When buying Abu's make sure you only get the Swedish made ones. Not all of them are produced in Sweden any more. Big difference in quality.

Damn Mexico

Oh man, just looking at that makes my mouth water for a huge plateful of fried halibut chunks, some cole slaw and hushpuppies... you know what? I'm gonna make that happen this weekend

Snow white and dense as a ribeye steak, its the best eating fish on the planet

It's winter time...go hit up some trout.

Man... i want to go fishing. My poles are all rigged up and collecting dust.

8/0 circle hooks are expensive. Have a tackle box full of em now. Got about $100 worth of gear that will all end up at the bottom of the Kansas river by October.

Just need to stock up on weights from 6oz to 16oz.

Also need to pick up nice scale.

Go big or go home.

My c6500 is Swedish, the 7000 is unfortunately made in China.

I like the cut of your jib

Funny thing is, I've always loved fishing, but for whatever reason, quit going a few years ago and took up golf.

Golf got frustrating and expensive. So a started fishing again.

After buying quality gear from hook to rod and everything in between, I've spent more money than on my golf clubs.

Fishing is a lot more satisfying anyway.

Speaking of money spent, I've got to basically start over with a bunch of gear

Let things dwindle down too far last season, its gonna cost a pretty penny to restock

I had a bunch of cheaper catfish gear that i had been using, but it failed too many times and i lost too many good fish. Last summer was so god damn frustrating. I joined a Facebook group with some serious fishermen in it, and have learned a lot since. Re-tooled my hole approach to catfish. If i don't pull at least one 50lb+ Blue or Flathead this summer I'm going to be severely disappointed.

Just got back from fishing. Caught a limit of crappie in an hour and twenty seven minutes in the dead water side just below Truman dam

Man, it's been too many years since I made it up there. Seen a lot of guys using home made remote control boats to run their lines across the current and drop them in the whirlpool on the other side. A lot of big cats pulled out of there. Blues, channels, and albinos. Pretty sweet setups for fisjing that particular spot.

First saw the remote control boat thing in action on the show Bizarre Foods of all things, some old Vietnamese guy here in America had one rigged up to tow his line where he wanted

Had a little mechanism that released the line etc, thought that was one of the coolest ideas I'd ever seen
