Had a little visit with Captain Greg Dini in Venice, LA over the weekend. Picked up this slob in a foot of water on a redfish fly.

Hey Chum,
I was fishing for black rockfish across Shellikof Straight from Kodiak island with my 6wt sage one. I threw a few casts and caught some palm sized black rockfish. A swell pushed the boat too close to the bank so I left my line in the water and started the motor to pull away, as soon as I put the motor in gear I felt a hard yank and turned back to see a massive halibut where my fly should have been. Two and a half hours later I had it on the beach, and shortly after that I ate her cheeks and washed it down with some Rainier. Probably be one of my most interesting fly rod fish of my life!!

Chummist Ryan Ligman met this AK 36", 17 pound bow on an evening off the guide schtick. As straight and clean as they get.
Armed with fly rods, waders and plenty of tippet — as well as enough food, wine and whiskey to feed and souse an army — they’ve traveled three hours from Portland via gently undulating back roads for fresh air, the challenge of cunning prey and, ultimately, an incomparable meal.

Good things happening this Sept. for chummist Kevin Coughlin.
