Damn...halibut is a bucket list fish. My dad slayed em on his Alaskan trip. Had 2 so big they shot the fuckers before landing em. Damn good eating, maybe my favorite. To be honest im pretty sure they bite anything that flops in front of em bro. He was catching them on some big ass yellow lead jigs that looked like shit. How many ounces are thise vudu shrimp? Gotta get heavy and deep for them. But im sure you know that.

My brother lives in Anchorage. I stayed up there to visit for a month one year and we went to his favorite restaurant and got the Halibut. To me it was like a large piece of white protein with very little flavor. The spices used was where the flavor came from. It was good don't get me wrong but really bland by itself.
 
Its hard to beat live bait. I find 9/10 live bait will out fish artificials.

When fish aren't actively feeding is when I think artificials shine. Getting that reaction strike.
 
I don’t fish anymore but I use to only use swim baits. I also only did bass fishing I wasn’t big into anything else.
 
I’ve caught lots fish with jigs and plastic shrimp with a jig head that didn’t swim. This was in Florida. Snook, Jack, red fish, trout, barracuda etc. I’m sure the swim would do great
