Landing a large halibut requires safe handling as a halibut can damage both you as a fisherman and things in the boat. Therefore, the safest handling is to attach a hook to the mouth of the halibut and then keep the halibut outside the boat. You can do this with confidence with this pre-rigged hook. The rope is 3m and 10mm thick. The loop at the other end is attached to the boat to secure the halibut
