Halibut seminar slated in Sequim

Anglers can learn how to fish for the flatties by attending a free halibut seminar presented by expert fisherman John Beath from 6-8:30 p.m. Friday, April 14, at Brian’s Sporting Goods and More, 609 W. Washington St. No. 21.

Store owner Brian Menkal said Beath won’t just limit his remarks to U.S. waters.

“He’s going to discuss fishing halibut here and in Canada,” Menkal said. “He will explain how to get licensed over there and provide some good spots. Having the opportunity to fish for halibut in Canada is a big thing with how short a season we will get over here.”

Menkal said Beath will offer plenty of tips and tricks for those who don’t have a vessel capable of crossing the Strait of Juan de Fuca.

He also recommends calling ahead to 683-1950 to RSVP a spot.
