2008 is an amazing year for Halibut. It seems like we always have more than we need. This years fishing was great. The fisherman this year were Don, Steve, Ron, Uncle Fred (Jess's uncles from Virginia) and Greg. Here are a few pictures from the butfest including the 34 lbs halibut caught by Steve. This was the biggest halibut of the trip. I might mention that on the first day of fishing Uncle Fred caught the first and the largest fish. He is a seasoned fishman.
While the guys were fishing on Friday, Aunt Kathy and I went to SF and did the a great tour. We saw fisherman's wharf, pier 39, ghiradelli square, marina green, presideo, palace of fine arts, golden gate bridge and tiburon. We then came home and had dinner with the guys. It was a fun and busy day.
Here is a picture of the happy fisherman. Some are happier than others.

The first day slaughter
This was the fish feast. We actually had halibut and blue fin tuna (previously caught).
Here is the setting sun with the smoke filled sky. Too many fires in California, but it makes a nice picture.
