What size weights do I need for halibut while anchoring on the banks?
I am sure I don't need the 5 pounders we use at La Push.
Thanks guys

Hey EC!
I can get by with 32oz most of the time but when the current slows down, I've used 20oz and kept the gear down.
The bigger your baits, the bigger the lead you'll need and remember, keep everyone's weight in your boat the same lest the current tie the dreaded "Murphy's Law Knot"...
