  3. ha ha. I am a very small boat in the halibut industry. 800 hooks is minuscule in comparison to what is typically fished . The halibut fishery is actually one of the most regulated and watched fishery in the World.IPHC
    It is internationally controlled and fisherman all have a quota. I could fish it one hook at a time or 10,000. I have a set quota and that is what I catch. And all the catch is very regulated at the docks and enforced.

  5. Nice job Len, in ALL aspects! BTW this is Fred, not Les. Les is taking a vacation from YouTube, FaceBook and various other forms of internet interaction 🙂 I’m just cruising his account now 🙂
