Gibbs Delta Halibut Leader Tackle (9-10) 200 LBS
Shop Guide Series Halibut Rig Fishing Gear
Circle hooks work great for halibut because once they’re set in the halibut’s mouth they simply don’t come out. A second advantage to a circle hook rig on a mono leader, is that the fish are much easier to release. The hook nearly always ends up in the corner of the halibut’s mouth and not inside the mouth or even worse, down the halibuts throat. So you can get a solid hook set easily. Especially if you do not set the hook.
