"See The Near 500-Pound Halibut Caught in Alaska

A California man went home from an Alaskan vacation with more than just memories, after catching a 482-pound halibut.

Jack McGuire made the impressive catch while fishing with the Alaskan Anglers Inn fishing charter in Glacier Bay, Alaska. The fish was 95 inches long according to The Associated Press.

In spite of its size, it does not beat the record catch of a 459-pound fish, because it was harpooned before it was brought on board, which violates the Game Fish Association regulations, according to the AP.
