Catching halibut in arctic Norway

[@bongarlee306]

Im new to you're channel...and I'm impressed...I've watched tons of your videos in the last couple of days...im a 50 year old who fishes off UK shores...I get seasick...yhat things over 4 foot long...bigger than my coffee table. Thank you for opening my eyes...research time...👍

[@glennm9307]

Takes me back to when I was younger. I loved fishing in the ocean. The weather you fish in is fantastic for fishing. I loved fishing in the weather you are fishing in. As long as the tide is right. You can always dress for the cold. Not so much for the heat. That fresh fish must taste fantastic. My kind of fishing!! And your laughter and pure enjoyment is infectious!

[@anisenkrill6179]

I don't watch many fishing videos, but these are great. I really appreciate the terminal and bait rigging descriptions and explanations even though I will probably never do this type of fishing. Fascinating.

[@skoskur2271]

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Merry Christmas, Garry! Thanks brother 😁👌

[@amuseSurfRigs]

I really enjoy watching your videos. I have leaned a lot about your type of fishing in Norway. I make a lot of fishing rigs here in the states. Also, I make Halibut rigs for competitiion fishing in Alaska. They are nothing like what you make. I sent your videos to Alaska so they can see what you do. I tell you this much, they are highly impressed with you style. The guy using my fishing rigs took 3rd place at 276lb or 1250Kg ... Keep the vids coming and Thank You ... Thank You

[@EarlsFishingAdventures]

Billy your the Halibut King well done mate . Hope you have a wonderful Christmas.

[@jorgeposadas1192]

Merry Christmas to you, and I loved the video and the 49.18pnd fish.

[@fishabit]

I always liked fishing in the rain but this is another level. Lest we forget its wintertime, In NORWAY! Thanks for sharing the tradition of sitting on the boathouse if you have no Halibut to eat for Christmas. You have saved face for yourself and many friends with that 50 pounder. Merry Christmas indeed!

[@DavidJolly-w1q]

Great vid as usual Billy, have a great Christmas 🐟🐟🐟🎅🎄

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Thanks David, same to you Brother 😁👌

[@trevorcampbell9284]

Savage fishing billy coarse match fishing 20+ years only started salty dangling about 3/4 years ago loving the videos learning loads from a fellow dub dangler. 🇮🇪👍👏

[@tommos16]

Great fishing man! Santa is bringing me a new Rod tomorrow and I'll be doubling down on my fishing. Can't wait!

[@londonviking3801]

You blerry legend Billyfishing - hope you have a very merry Christmas. It doesn't get much better than this - Thor approves!. FYI - the absolute best sashimi I ever had was halibut - I've never had it cooked.

[@Billyfishing_watch]

Thanks Viking! I have to agree, halibut is very good! Has sashimi, ling as well. Right lines Brother, and merry Christmas 😁👌

[@jaaron2834]

Hey there Billy,... as always, a great adventure in your videos...The Halibut is an amazing creature .... we have 2 species,.. California & the Pacific Halibut.... here's the interesting thing... there is a 50-mile stretch south of the Golden Gate Bridge where there are no Halibut...then it starts again...all day long,... but they mostly shakers and some keepers...but where you're fishing,... live the uncaught monsters much like the giant Halibut in Alaska....I believe the record is close to 800lbs.

[@GrimReaper68440]

Always enjoy your videos Billy. Having to sit on top of your boat house is hilarious 😂. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄

[@funnysods]

Two nice Christmas presents there Billy. Merry Christmas mate and have a great 2025.

[@Mrhonest111]

Glad to see your having a cracking halibut seasons. Shame about the weather. But it looks like fun. Keep up the good work. Have a good Christmas. Niceeeee

[@brimstone260]

Well done Billy, merry xmas and many, many thanks for sharing all this with us. All the best in the coming year.👌❤

[@comfortablynumb9342]

When I was 17 I went to Sweden to visit a guy who lived with my family as an exchange student. His family had an iff grid house on a little island for the summer. We went there for 4-5 nights and I caught piles of cod with metal spoon lures with lead on one side. Funny lures, but effective. I didn't realize I should have tried for halibut. Some of the cod I caught probably would have been good live bait. That's a beautiful part of the world. It was strange for a kid who grew up fishin in Florida. It would be great to go back and see Nickaus again in Sweden, he's a guide now. Still fishin'. I still fish a lot too but in the Chesapeake Bay. All summer I fish for flounder and some redfish.

[@garycreasey4538]

Yet another great halibut thanks . U the man . Merry christmas billy

[@beamer_extremer29]
