I went on my very first saltwater fishing with one of my fishing partners, Taka. It was actually his first time going Halibut fishing so rather going to a place where you may catch large size Halibuts like Bolsa Chica, I went to a place where you have a better chance catching more fishes like Long Beach.

On this day, there were less tide movements, so I assumed it would be a bit tougher to catch anything. However, Taka who has a lot of Bass fishing experience, was amazingly good at examining the bottom area and sensing the slight lure actions.

As I assumed, I wasn’t able to catch anything while Taka caught 4 Halibuts with the BigUP lure (in white colors). He caught small size Halibuts one after another!! They all came biting while he was slow retrieving. He enjoyed his very first Halibut fishing a lot and now he goes almost everyday! I won’t lose next time!!
