    I don't get it. You can't even find restaurants that serve halibut fish & chips anymore. Are halibut becoming more scarce?

    I thought it was just because it's ing awesome. You gotta be a moron to take a piece of halibut and cover it in ty batter and deep fry it though.

    I'll bet more than 90% of the people who live in Portland don't know how to fish. Besides, the Willamette river is so polluted, I doubt anyone would fish it except for places farther upstream.

    google "halibut stocks collapse"

    pretty much true for all food fish. Industrial fishing and factory ships are killing just about all major fish stocks to collapse or imminent collapse.

    eg:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collaps...rn_Cod_Fishery

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overfishing

    Huge fish stocks go to feed domestic cats, which return the favor by killing 100Ms/year of birds.

    Develop a taste for garbage fish Asian carp and Snakehead, two invasive species taking over American rivers and lakes.

    Tlong- The good stuff is not really on the store shelves yet…I have noticed that the Fresh Alaskan Halibut has only been available for a few summer months then it’s back to the thin cut frozen…I blame the commercial fishing industry & the USA for not expanding & protecting its ocean borders…Amazes me that the guy fishing with one rod is scrutinized by the U.S. Fish & game and Japanese drift netters do what they want…

    That would be shame if it's being over-harvested. Halibut is an awesome tasting fish.

    Halibut is a bottom feeder it sits on the ocean floor and sifts through crap and eats it. It's full of worms and parasites not a good fish to eat anyway.

    Try again...they are a slow growing deep water fish that is not a sustainable food fish. Their populations are already collapsing. Not suprising for a fish that takes 25 years to reach maturity.

    You talking about the roughy or the halibut? Or both?
