Welcome to the Hotel Halibut at the Rockwall

Welcome to the Hotel Halibut at the Rockwall 

Desk Clerk:“Hi, you’ve reached the hotel halibut, how may I help you?” 
Me: “I want to make a reservation for tonight. It will be me and two of my friends: (Keith, Ryan and Tim)””
Desk Clerk: “I’m sorry sir. We are fully booked. I do have a reservation two months from now. Would you like to reserve it?” 
Me:“Go ahead and book it. There will be three vacancies by tonight”
Desk Clerk:“ohh…it’s you guys”

(silence falls over the phone lines) 

The water rushed along the wall and out into the distant bay bridge. We fished the outgoing tide and headed straight for “hotel halibut”. The hotel has been book solid for weeks because of their world famous “All you can eat” Anchovy bait balls surrounding the area. The crowds lined up outside despite rumors of the occasional missing guest.

Halibut 1: “Hey Jim have you seen bob?”
Halibut 2: “I saw him this morning. He said he was going for breakfast with a sexy herring that he met in the lobby”
Halibut 1: “Lol. He’s always had a thing for sexy shinny things. Remember when he left his wife and 500 kids for that shiny lure and it almost did him in? hahah… I hope it doesn’t catch up with him.”
Halibut 2: “Yeah let’s go get some breakfast…Hey loookk!! Shinny Shinny”

We arrived at 8:00 a.m. at the hotel lobby as the tide began to turn. My line angled 45 degrees in the water as the weight of the eight ounce sinker skipped along the bottom of the bay. The dodger twisted and flashed in the murky green bay as sex herring spinned its way along the muddy bottom seducing a bite.

Beep Beep Beep– Tim’s fish finder alarm sounded as bait ball after bait ball floated under us. “Come on!!” Tim would mummer silently under his breath as his eyes focus intently on his rod tip.

Beep
Beep
Beep

The alarm rang.

The morning passed with little action and the idea of going home empty handed started to become a reality–It was looking grim. We trolled the second wall for tiny strikes and scratched bait. Suddenly Tim’s rod shows life.

Tap Tap Tap the rod tip ticked before his pole bends over–FISH ON!! The fish shakes its head violently and takes a few runs to the bottom before Tim gets it to surface. Tim yells “Halibut” as his heart raced and his voice shakes.

“Mr. Miyagi…Mr. Miyagi” Tim mummers as he positions the net under the fish before it dashes for the murky green bottom of the bay. It splashes the water white before submitting to its fate. The pressure of a skunked day was off, and we
felt more energized, and alive. 

Me: “Hey Tim” (On the VHF)
TIM: “What’s up?”
ME: “You got any peanut butter”
Tim: “Peanut butter??”
Me: “Yeah dude, cause I’m hella Jelly right now. LOL”

Ryan looked from the distance and congratulates Tim. He peddles into deeper water, in search of his own fish, then radios us almost immediately.

Ryan: “ I’m on!!”
Me: “Ryan you on??”
Ryan: “Yeah, its big. I think 30+”

From the distance, I see his frantic body language express his anxiety. He gets it to surface and nets it before signaling to Tim and I that he got it. (2-2 for the crew!), and just like that we were finally in the game. The action came fast because less than a minute later I see my pole go BENDO.

FISH ON!! 

I get her to surface from the green water of the bay. My heart raced from the adrenaline pumping in my viens. “Oh crap” i exclaimed as i see  “One barb” holding the fish by a flap of skin. My hand trembled and my mind raced with the numerous possibilities of this going south on me.  Suddenly the fish dashed for the bottom, peels line and shakes its head. I held on and waited for the familiar “POP” — but this time the gods favored me.

She came up and floated tranquilly on the surface. “Mr. Miyagi…Mr. Miyagi”, raced through mind as I laughed at the randomness of my thoughts.  She notices my net and bolts directly into it. I lifted it high as she frantically splashes the water before laying still. I let out a sigh of relief as i worked her from the net and clipped her. (3-3) and the day finally seemed complete.

 

 

 

 

We trolled around for another hour as greed got the better of us. By noon the wind pick up and we decided to call it a day. The day ended with a few photos and a cold beer on the ramp.

Front Desk: “Hi, and welcome to the Hotel Halibut”
Me: “I would like to get the three rooms that were recently vacant today”
Front Desk: “yes sir. We just got three cancellations.”
