Went to Alaska for the Honeymoon and was treated to some great fishing. I thought the action for kings would be faster like in the midwest, but as I found out it was more like musky fishing hoping for just the right bite from fish that were much larger that what I am used too. Also, I was always told that halibut was like wenching up a barn door, but I found the opposite. These fish would run, strip drag, swim to the surface and go back down again. They were so aggressive that they would come up from 260 feet below to the surface where we could then sight fish them with jigs. Maybe it was because we were catching smaller Halibut? Anyway by looking at the pics you can probably tell who caught the most. I taught Jenny how to fish 9 years ago and she has been whoopin my butt ever since. She actually made grown men cry in the parking lot. Seriously.
The Kenai Kings were caught in 6 FOW with a size 16 Mallard kwikfish backtrolling, the halibut were caught with cut herring in 90-260 FOW and with white plastic jigs, and the salty king was caught in 17 FOW over 140 FOW with a Needle Fish live bait rigged like Slow Death.
