[@karl-erlendmikalsen5159]

"Its large tail and powerful muscular give it explosive acceleration"...and lots of delicious white meat. nomnomnomnom halibut :D

[@brandonwatson7182]

Do Pacific halibut live in both saltwater AND freshwater? I ask because I read online that Pacific halibut can live in the Columbia River in Washington, Oregon, and Canada.

[@jacobsanden1905]

Halibut proceeds to repeatedly smack head on the boats hull.

[@fadhilahnaufal6781]

I wonder how many fish n chips u can cook out of that fish

[@Jcbrazy]

Halibut is delicious most definitely my favourite type of fish to eat .

He's like a obsessed little kid!!!

[@benjaminsim5233]

Holy halibut! But is it good enough for Jehovah?

[@shaundegarson513]

How you don't have full documents on your documentary

[@haiway85]

now i know where some of the pokemon references from

[@Nauj1017]

Teow Hai Way stop it

[@trollerpilotxiv3079]

Are halibut related to bass? The face makes me confused

[@rickross788]

There is no way that's 120 unless Jeremy is 10 feet tall. I've been catching these for the last 20 years and that's a nices 60 pounder. Perfect eater any bigger and they arn't any good to eat

[@Killingfrenzy4161]

Why aren't the bigger ones good to eat? Does it taste off?

[@volgax3646]

David Thomas there usually old

[@sdarms111doug9]

Right? Looks like maybe 60 or so?

[@rickross788]

Once they start to get larger than about 60 to 80 pounds the meat gets grainy and full of mercury. The taste and texture begin to decline. Think of it similar to beef, veal is way better than an old steer at the end of it's life. We prefer the 20 to 60 pound range. Also they are bottom feeders and tend to have a lot of worms in the belly area as they get older the worms spread through their body. Not a big deal as long as you cook the meat properly. hence why I don't eat sushi!

[@Killingfrenzy4161]

Very informative, thank you for answering my question

[@jjje2000]

I'm a commercial fisherman for halibut and that is definitely not 120 pounds probably 60-70

[@Doofles01]

Do you know what a GUESS IS?

[@Nanu67-e9j]

No your stupid that is a big fish he cought possibly bigger than 120 pounds but he had to just estimate size and Jeremy is a fish biologist so he wouldn't lie to you

[@loveruoo1307]

stop thinking youre btter than jeremy wade when everyone knowas hat youre never gonna be as good as him. cringe.

[@buginone3640]

Nice work :-)

[@woolncathairs]

I wish you had explaiined why it has eyes on one side of it's body.

[@woolncathairs]

+Carson Wolfe Thanks Carson - I knew the answer but I bet a lot of folks did not! It would not have taken that much time to explain how the fish is born normal and one eye migrates.

[@HowtoAlaska]

So if that one is 120 pounds, how big is the one in my profile picture that my 9 year old caught?

[@johncosico3810]

That would have been dinner for the month! Fish tacos, ceviche, etc.

[@ahmadyusef8226]

Yo Jeremy what's your biggest fish you ever catch

[@exclusiveaccess85]

Wowwwwww now that's a monster fish

[@slhines7]

Wow and amazing!

[@johncosico3810]

Hmmm that’s about half the weight you said. I’d say between 60-70lb hali

[@Rumpleman]

Yeah a halibut is so deadly

[@Junketh71]

I must admit - I never expected the haibut to be a monster of any sort...

[@Stanleytjahh]

Dmitri Kaminiar At my work we had one that weighed more than 200 kilo, (450 pounds or something) needless to say, the thing was massive and you wouldn't want that pounding on your boat

[@Ror0009]

They are hard to handle on boat

[@dwaipayandattaroy9801]

And other side is barren ?

[@CharlieSpencers]

All the comment section is is just Yanks picking at Jeremy for an inaccurate weight estimation. 😅

[@kevinkane1405]

Those things are like big flounder

[@VeryanStrong.]

omg hahahah listen 34:00 to 53:00 on double speed funniest shit ever

[@kimbao6494]

Penn squall damn

[@emmitunderwood9502]

I've never herd of halibut killing people, they have pulled them over board but never killing them.

[@jeffk464]

Halibut are dinner not killers

[@akioutsunomiya4343]

wow that was 60 kilgram fish wow very trued athat was a deadweight of the fish. fish size a bd weight is right i, from

[@yourfriendlyneighborhoodqu3859]

Stuff on video looks smaller than in real life

[@konabali]

Killer halibut??? What are you smoking Jeremy? What's next, killer sardine?

[@LuisFelipe-rx2hx]

Ou não acreditei quando vi vi um minguado pescado do Brasil GO no rio vermelho eles o esfaquearam achando que era uma arraia

[@punk45xx17]

Monsters - Come on ◆ There just hungry ★

[@The66Leadfoot]

Come on man what's next the terrifying Jumbo Perch?

[@cheri470]

He caught a 100 pound Nile Perch. Quiet down when you don't know the power of these beasts.

[@remelsheikh]

Doesnt look 120lbs, maybe 80

[@akowned1]

***** Yeah I'd give it about 80

[@intergalacticthoughtcrimin9763]

As a guy who lived in Alaska i've seen bigger, never cot bigger, but seen bigger

[@CRASH-vt8xy]

I know people are saying that doesn't look like 120 lbs but I can see that being 120 because I have seen catfish that size may be a foot bigger being 130

[@biguglyaka.oprahsminge8800]

Alaskan killer!? lol. yeah there is nothing like getting killed by a halibut. lost a good friend awhile back said hey bud don't go snorkeling while in Alaska those halibut Ben known to take a snorkeller or two!!!

[@ayai5233]

big ugly AKA. Oprah's minge name of the episode is alaskan killer. This is not the killer he was lookig for

[@emmitunderwood9502]

That's not 120, maybe 80 but definitely not 120.

[@rodesnavel7419]

Guess

[@chroniclesofab6206]

so how exactly are they dangerous when brought on board alive?

[@qwilliams1539]

Strong enough to break bones when flopping around if they are big enough.

[@georgegordon9524]

It’s flats from spongebob

[@issacchase6238]

Well Jeremy, what about a leather gloves?

[@ethanjohnson9230]

Definitely not a “fisherman” killer.

[@donalbamon4672]

i thnt it can harm people

[@MatimoreAgain]

r they living fossils?

[@Zelousmarineinspace]

no

[@trishwilliams1972ify]

Halibut aren't dangerous

[@petesampson4273]

Halibut will give a nice pull, straight down, but they can't compare to a salmon or a shark or even a "bat ray" (smaller version of a manta). I've caught 5 foot halibut that don't match the strength, not to mention speed, of a 30 inch salmon. A 5 foot blue shark? You better have 4 times as much line as you need for a halibut. A big pelagic ray? Don't even bother with anything less than 150lb line. I hooked into a big one with 60lb. test and I was completely helpless to slow it down much less turn it. They aren't terribly fast but the way that they are constructed, using their entire body as one big fin, makes them immensely strong and efficient. Heck! One could argue that a 20lb. pike is more dangerous than a halibut of any size. I had a pike of about 30 inches, (maybe 6lb. ?) catch me unaware and it managed to bite clean through the nail of the ring finger on my right hand and hang there while it turned the end of my finger into hamburger. It then proceeded to thrash around until my buddy got to me to help me get it loose. It left me with a serious puncture wound deep and some serious lacerations in the heart of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. By the end of the first day I was kept busy squeezing pus out of the wounds and soaking them in iodine. When I got back to civilization, about 4 days, I had lost 20 pounds and had a fever of 103F. A 20lb. pike, and I've caught more than a few, would have simply removed the end of my finger. Halibut don't even deserve mention when talking about dangerous fish.

[@petesampson4273]

***** You're right. I should have said "pull" rather than "strength". A 5 foot halibut is stronger but a salmon is so much faster that it pulls harder and can rip a hundred yards of line off your reel as easily as a halibut bulldogs straight down once one manages to lift it off the bottom.

[@petesampson4273]

***** Not to mention that both halibut and salmon are fun to catch and delicious in their different ways!

[@superkidswoolum2197]

don't know how it moves it is so so so so far.sorty fishy don't kill me if your dead sorry about that

[@randyhendrix5375]

fush and chups mate

[@j.a.m3894]

My mans Jesus C gave dis poor fish down syndrome

[@R.B141]

This fish i already eat, my father fisherman he catch many defferent fish but look like this parents of all fish what my papa catch.

[@madelonlillyochoa3998]

A floder alasicin flonder

[@shellyclements4667]

if it kills people then why let it go

[@bolby019]

Shelly Clements they don’t kill them purposely lol

[@Aqsaitaaq]

I just watched a other halibut video and theres was smaller and they shot it lmao they were white also

[@brianfarmer6223]

Xander Ferreira that’s what most people do before bringing them onboard, protect themselves and boat. Nothing to do with their race lmao

[@jeffjackson8257]

Wowser,wowser good 4 ,U but,I would have tried to eat it. Don'tt understand on all of your shoes about dangerous rives monsters" fish", that killed people wen you cought the you just released, back into the water to do wat they will, we're i' d kill them, to stop them from striking again 😎, PS please explain by texting me.

[@mootikpin1665]

That makes a good fish and chips

[@superkidswoolum2197]

I mean fat not far

[@lucasstelzer4167]

That's nothing special it's a halibut

[@mohanjitboparai227]

Halibuts are never dangerous. And 120 lbs is light. I've seen 300+ pound halibuts

[@fishingdude8212]

U right mate. Here in norway we have caught 100kg-200kg at the biggest. I think it is 400++ lbs

[@thedude5901]

Halibut aren't that dangerous

[@GcrewEnT]

likes??

[@bojaiden5175]

delicious white meat

[@ilovefriedrice9891]

ive lost some respect for this guy as soon as the words 120lbs came out of his mouth.

[@Doofles01]

Louis Ng You do know that it was just a bad guess right after he reeled it in. Stop being so sensitive

[@xanderu5612]

A halibut is NOT dangerous

[@FISHONAJ]

Sorry uploader, thumbs DOWN. That fish doesn't weigh 120 lbs :(

[@MuhammadEgypt]

But what's the point of fishing and then releasing these fish? If it's just for the show, don't you hurt them with the hook?

[@alexanderlopez3122]

The pain they feel is similar to a bee sting to us

[@florian-336]

Alex Lopez is it ? I always thougt it must be painfull for them

[@fusionstar916]

+Herr Ablassend Fish eat other fish with spikes..

[@aquariums6480]

Fish don't have eyebrows and can't scream fuck them Mohamed

[@wheresmyirishwhiskeytullam4326]

Mohamed Farouk Fish don't feel pain in their jaws. If they did, they'd never eat after being spined from eating another fish. Besides, catch and release is a good thing to practice because that leaves more fish for sports anglers to catch.

[@fjames5324]

I was told it tastes like @ss
