He has found the Unalaska pod to be the most savvy, skilled and aggressive — leaving just traces of halibut, the largest of which could have netted Hanson hundreds of dollars apiece.“Most of the time, you get nothing. Sometimes a lip, or ahalf a fish, if they get full,” Hanson said. “They are particularly good at what they do.”'This paragraph comes from Northern Journal.
