Adventure #6 Tell a Fish Story (7 points)

In 2007 I took my husband (then boyfriend) on a fishing charter out of Santa Cruz harbor, using the Monterey Bay Charter company and the Mega-Bite boat. We were joined by my father-in-law, his friend and my girlfriend and her husband (then boyfriend). It was my first time ever fishing in the ocean and we were all having a great time catching our limit of sand dabs and watching the jelly fish right under the surface of the water. A couple of hours into our expedition I felt a pull on my line, since there was a lot of tension I figured I had gotten my line snagged on kelp or something. In an attempt to unhook my line I kept reeling it in - - - and to my surprise, my line wasn't snagged, it was in the mouth of a 21 pound halibut!!! I brought in the "catch of the day" (probably the catch of my life!). It was an experience I will never forget!
