My Dad and his brother would go up to Alaska every year back in the 50's and 60's for salmon and or halibut when in 1960 my dad landed a 300+ lb fish in a 16 foot open boat and the picture I saw had the fish laying in the bottom of the boat with it's wings curling over the gunuls of both sides of the boat.
I don't know how many monsters like that are still left up there, but here in Rhode island we call the big fluke Doormats and that makes the fish my Dad caught a fricken Wall to Wall Carpet.
You bring back a lot of memories Robert, thank you so much for that.

Just went fishing in Sitka last month in June, excursion from a cruise boat Holland America. Caught a 28 inch Lingcod and 8 small rockfish. I really wanted to catch a Halibut. Trouble we had was the charter boat, trolled for most of our trip for salmon, but we were not marking any fish and I finally called the captain out on it, and he changed up for us to jig for Rockfish and salmon.

Awesome video Robert! I love fishing the Frederick Sound - one the most amazing spots in all of Southeast Alaska and just a quick trip from Petersburg (a little farther trek down from Juneau. This is one of the rare places that you can be fishing for halibut or salmon and potentially see humpbacks, orcas, icebergs and snow-capped mountains all at the same time!

Hey Rob if you're out looking for different places To run trips out of you have to check out Pelicans Roost in New Orleans.
1st class accommodations Super trained friendly staff, non stop action and VIP SERVICE. So if your looking for Reds, Specks and a host of other fish with Ritz Carlton accommodations on a House Boat in the Bayou. Check them out.

Always fun to see pro fishing shows strictly misidentify fish. the black cod is a dusky rockfish, totally unrelated species, doesn't look anything alike
