Hali counts in the Santa Monica bay are way down. You gotta be very lucky to catch a keeper these days. Too many recreational fishermen chasing too few fish.

Spotfin, I don't think the recreational impact is a factor.  "Special permits" for gill-netting halibut fisheries have been issued since we outlawed gill nets and draggers have possibly caused a lot of damage.  There is a lot more to it though.  The halibut bite will return.
