Recently I asked a fishing list, to which I am a subscriber, what I was doing wrong to only be catching sharks... Here is the best reply from a happy anonymous fisherman... Thank you for the inspiration...
You can try the outside like seal rocks or point bonita or hmb area.attached is a photo of last Sunday's halibut.
34#'s on the scale.
Caught outside of hmb. Using a artificial lure

Next question... how was it prepared for the dinner table?
