Thank you everybody for your support, and a special thanks to Christopher and Tanya of Tjongsfjord lodge 😁👌

[@stucook8622]

Thanks to you for your efforts. Anyone who fishes knows about needing gills on the days you drown whilst you fish in an all day heavy rain.🍺

[@billyfoster9087]

That was truly once in a lifetime stuff, love all the videos and would like to know your estimate of the length of weight of that monster

[@christopherscheibe4851]

I was gutted for you, You are a true genius of an angler/fisherman. A very Happy Christmas to you and hope that whale of a But comes back to you for another fight in the New Year. Blessing be upon you..

[@cookingbynumbers123]

Mr Halibut went home and said to his mates, "you won't believe the size of the Geezer I just caught". Cracking video and huge respect to you Sir. Well done. It will take you a day or three to get over that. Thanks for your work.

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Nice! Like the way you flipped it around 🤣 thanks brother, much appreciated 😁✊

[@jorgeposadas1192]

Hahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahaha that is fkn funny as hell, geezer.

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Thanks brother, glad you liked it 😁✊

[@djgrazer1974]

Well done Billy... Some fish mate..I had a smile on my face the whole time u were fighting that halibut... Amazing... I hooked 1 in Bodo in February, I couldn't stop it.. I was bringing in a smallish fish and I thought I got snagged just as I was about to land the fish.. next thing my snag took off like a train.. couldn't do a thing.. it was spooling me.. held for a break . scary power in big Halibut..

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Being spooled! Is a bitter sweet experience 🤬 one I hate and love! But it always leaves me thinking! What was it, how big was it and what could I have done differently. Thanks brother, much appreciated 😁👌

[@tweeker85jf]

That was fantastic billy. What a fish man. Well done. 👏

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Thanks brother, much appreciated 😁✊

[@haci9921]

Simply incredible!!! I’m buzzing with that feeling only a halibut can give you🥳

Absolutely amazing fishing, one of the best fishing videos I've ever seen, hats off to you Billy. 👍

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Thank you so much brother! I don't suppose I'll ever catch a bigger one 😁✊

[@1RodRob]

@Billyfishing_watch I say that about my shore caught PB Plaice of 57cm but you never know. Lovin your videos, subbed.

[@rickanderson1913]

Holy cow! That was HUGE! Love the 'ambitious' plan to land the monster 🤣 Keep them coming Billy

Well done Billy, a fantastic result all round, you caught a fish of a lifetime and he caught an angler who had it's best interest at heart, you both go back with a tale to tell and more importantly your both safe, hopefully his hook will drop out soon. Happy Christmas and a fishy new year Billy. Take care

[@Billyfishing_watch]

All I wanted was some dinner! and then that guy tried to pull me into the water!🤣 Thanks brother, glad you like it 😁👌

[@davidyoung9635]

JAYSUS I thought I was going to have a bloody heart attack. Don't know wether to laugh or cry. Call that a chuffing win!!! Thought you were going watersking. Don't know what to say.Ya beauty. Very very much love on ya bro!!

[@Billyfishing_watch]

It was pretty close there for a while! But I have good studs on my boots, and they bit into the pier nicely. Thanks brother 😁✊

[@Sflynn74]

Jeeeebuss that was a monster. I knew it was going to be a good fish when the 'bleeps' came in. Keep em coming Billy. Another cracking video.

[@Billyfishing_watch]

That was a beast, all right! Let's hope they don't get any bigger 🤣 thanks Brother 😁👌

[@steventurner8428]

I have not ever seen a single person video like this before. I don't usually watch from start to finish because I'm impatient but I just could not do that here. The entire film, especially the location in that weather was stunning. You back yard is a fairy tale and the way you handled the entire event was just fascinating. I know that I will never get to experience this at my age but I have bookmarked it for my next life.

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Hi Steven. I'm so glad to hear you didn't fast forward to the fish! It is such a common occurrence these days, my aim is to keep people watching and entertained! So thank you very much brother, I really appreciate it 😁👌

[@Scenefromabove.]

That was amazing, couldn't look away. Well done and thanks for letting us be a part of it with you. 💥

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Anytime brother! If you weren't there to see it! Who else would 😁👌

[@fishinghinny]

Whoooooaaaaaahhhhhh 😮 Excellent video Billy, I bet you had sore arms the day after - well done 👍 Dannielle

[@Billyfishing_watch]

They were longer than my fishing rod, Daniella 🤣 thank you so much 😁✊

[@gashacker1]

Billy, there is a story from the West Coast of North America, north of where I live, in Alaska actually. The story is about 60 years old, and involves a halibut which revealed itself to be feeding under the pier in front of a fish processing plant. A heavy line and massive bait were deployed. The fish took the bait and fought predictably on the extremely heavy line. Many men helped fight the fish and eventually the line was tied to a big truck and the fish dragged up the cement boat launch ramp. I was said to be more than 900 pounds. Your video brought that story back to my mind......

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Yes! My experience is exactly the same, the norwegians will write sagas about me🤣 I don't know about 900lbs, but it was more than 200. Thanks brother, much appreciated 😁👌

[@fishabit]

DAMN what a fish! A veritable aircraft carrier class. Congratulations Brother!

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Don't exaggerate! A small boat will do 🤣👌 Thanks Brother, much appreciated 😁✊

[@scottprovost5029]

That was an extraordinary fish, testament to the angler you are. Well done and merry Christmas. 👏

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Thank you so much Scott, it was touch and Go there for a minute 😅👌

[@scottprovost5029]

@Billyfishing_watch That spool was running out quick lol. It reminded me of a friend who got spooled by a speed boat off Amble pier years ago🤣🤣. Also i forgot to say, you did EXACTLY THE RIGHT thing by taking the leader for the capture and allowing the fish to break off. Trying to land that fish onshore for vanity could have easily ended up in yourself getting hurt and putting the welfare of the fish at risk. Your some lad, keep up the good work.

[@jamesscott933]

I'll definitely call that a win. Respect for the fish. We all got to see it. And you didn't end up in the drink. People who have tied into large Chinook salmon from the bank of a river know how dangerous it can be, especially if you get spooled. With a monster like that, one slip, or getting tangled in you're own line and your going for a swim. Glad to watch it and know you're not at the bottom of the fjord because your channel is wonderful entertainment

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Well all is well, that ends well! For both me and the fish! Thanks James, much appreciated 😁👌

[@lu4439]

Absolutely hardcore catch, Billy! Watched like a movie with popcorns. Keep going master. Greetings from Italy.

[@Billyfishing_watch]

[@ronniearchibald]

Well done Billy this just shows you are not only a master angler but a master baiter as well 😂😂 Brilliant halibut of a lifetime chuffed for you

[@Billyfishing_watch]

I would rather catch that fish! Then when the lottery! An absolutely amazing experience. Thank you so much Paul, much appreciated brother 😁✊

[@motorsnutts6594]

@ when the fish was still underwater you estimated 200lb fish , when it surfaced are you still thinking same or more ?

[@VaughanSummerville-i3w]

I really love the way you explain the love for fishing I've been fishing all over 40 years and I've tried to explain my love for fishing to people and why I do it the way I do and God bless you with that Passage thank you so very much❤❤❤

Kindred spirits, that's what we are! Thanks brother 😁✊

[@markcurrie9072]

Incredible angling Billy, congratulations

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Thanks Mark, glad you light it brother 😁👌

[@patrickellaby]

I often wondered what would happen if you caught a XXL halibut cos it was going to happen one day! Now I know! Just imagine what would have happened to your gaff when you stuck it in him 😂- Just look what happens from boat - they go ballistic! Absolutely fantastic video once again Billy, congrats on that PB. Now go for something different like a 5 kg plaice - rest your arms!! 💪

[@Billyfishing_watch]

What can I say! As far as an upgrade is concerned, it's hard to beat that fish! Somehow these things are all a little, bittersweet! I'm so glad the fish swam away. Thanks brother, much appreciated 😁👌

[@derekmay8679]

That was brilliant 👏. Huge fish ,especially from the shore...Congrats to you sir..fish of a lifetime. And I'd say. It would've been pretty dangerous to deal with on your own pal ...And that beautiful creature went back to the depths again... Such power in those runs ..

[@Billyfishing_watch]

I have heard of people being killed by fish of that size! But worse, the fish would die because I needed to be a hero! I am many things, but selfish is not one of them. Thanks brother, much appreciated 😁✊

[@derekmay8679]

@Billyfishing_watch Best result all round Mate 👏 👌

[@MC-ft8zv]

Well that was a surprise, and a real workout for you!! The tension was palpable watching the video, and when Billy gets a bit nervous hauling in a fish, we all do too, behind our laptop screens! Enjoy your sore arms and shoulders for the next day or two, and thank you sir, for the best, realistic, man powered fishing channel on KZbin.

[@Billyfishing_watch]

That was a hell of a thing brother! A once in a lifetime experience, glad you liked it 😁✊

[@Masterfisherman]

Amazing stuff!! Really enjoyed that mate. What an absolute beast!! At least you get to see the fish, it's horrible when u fight so long and never get to see it but fair play to you u done really well to bring it in that close. Cant wait to go back to norway and catch my first ever halibut soon hopefully :) tight lines bud 👍🎣

[@chrisbree3467]

Absolutely stupendous feat of angling Billy. I’m so glad that you opted for the release method that you did, it would have been such a great shame to have killed it. It gave you the fight of your life and it’s probably the biggest fish that you will ever hook. I’m so glad it was you who caught it. Fish on brother, I’m so pleased for you 🐟🇳🇴.

[@Billyfishing_watch]

I would estimate that fish, to be over 150 years old! It would indeed be a shame to kill it! Thanks Chris, glad you liked it brother 😁👌

Nice Catch,Billy- you did the right thing, by cutting the leader, in salt water hooks deteriorate (rust out) in about 7-8 days. 🏆🍻
