Myself along with 7 of my buddies had a halibut trip with westport charters yesterday. Everything seemed fine a little windy thats all, after about 2 hours the skipper decided to make a U-turn and head back to the marina swells at the dropoff were up to 8 to 10 feet and I guess at full speed we were going only 7 knots. It started looking really ugly when we turned back. I just wanted to thank the Capt. Steve Westerick of the hula girl for looking out for everybodys safety. I could only imagine how much $$ on gas was wasted I guess there is always next year!

Fished with Capt.Steve on the Hula GirlAnd he's one of the best in Westport.

Never worth risking it all just to fish. Sometimes you lose a battle, but live to fight again. Hopefully you will be rewarded on your next trip!

Yo minibear-
did you get your money back?
