Guess what?  Today was Halibut fishing day.  We departed from Homer Harbor at 6:30 AM for a day on the water.  We sailed about 2 hours from Homer before putting our hooks in the water but when we did the action started immediately.  Mary and Bobbi both enjoyed battling the 20 pound Halibut and we all filled our limits.

Bobbi hooked a big one but it broke the leader before we could get it into the boat.  She insists that it must have been the 400 pound one she was hoping to catch.  Ya sure!

After returning to Homer and taking care of our catch (arranging for shipment home after the guys filleted them) we headed for the Salty Dog Saloon for a celebratory ale.

The weather was great (no rain, no wind), the fishing was great, another great day in Alaska.
