The 251.2 pound Halibut caught by David Hicks with the professional crew of Capitan Jj Robinson and his Deckhand Justin Stegall has won the tournament. The fish was caught on Sunday the 24th of June. The Tournament ended on Saturday June 30th at 8:00 PM and although some very nice loads of fish came in over the week our fish help first place with no real challengers. The grand prize for this first year of the tournament was $5K with second and third winning $3K and $2K. We were all very excited to be on top of that board at the end.

There are bigger fish out there; we caught 3 bigger last year so come up and see if you will be the next lucky angler to boat a 200+ (trophy) Halibut!
