Another Santa Cruz flattie

Went out yesterday evening to fish the high tide off the Silver Spur surf break.Got another one, 26 inches, in about 7 feet of water. Caught on a sardine patterned storm bait. Seventh halibut so far this year, and its not even June yet. Averaging around 1 per trip at the right spots and high tide. My buddy caught one as well, at 24 inches, drifting a dead sardine. Santa Cruz isn't the best for rockfish, but a good halibut year definitely makes up for that.

That's awesome, thanks for the report. I have yet to hook into a halibut this year and info like that should assist in achieving the goal.
