Well, today should be interesting in the metals.

I googled halibut and spent the morning reading up on them. I was really confused becasue I was sure there were two species. I was sure I read that? I have never even heard of a large halibut being caugth off of the California coast; and I have a shadow memory of a book once saying the California halibut weighs up to 80 lbs?

Which jived with my own experiences. I was a big fisherman in my youth. But apparently there is only on species of halibut and they run all the way to Baja california.

My great grandfather caught them off of a peir in Morrow Bay, but they were only about 30 libs or so.

And it also looks like there is an atlantic halibut that is also the same species although they have a different bone structure.

Maybe like the difference between brown bears and grizzly bears--i.e. same species?/

Very puzzling as in california before th sardines were wiped out there was a ton of food which is the reason for the size difference in grizzly bears, I think??
