Halibut bonanzas rival shrimping in British Columbia
A Canadian vessel and a sister ship returned from 12 and 10 days at sea with 153000 and 172000 pounds of halibut. At 22 cents a pound, the first haul neared 24000 dollars and the second almost 39000 dollars, each boat earning about 2800 to 3800 dollars per day.
