OK so this is a SCUBA trip. Which I am certified so thats not a problem.

My only questions are how deep a dive is it? Will a pole spear work for this size fish? And, since I will be alone, will there be anyone there to point me in the right direction?

Appreciate you guys helping out a rookie here
 
Halibut hunt dives can be anywhere from 80 - 5 ft deep. You should consider being very comfortable and fairly experienced to chance dealing with a 20-40 lb fish while on scuba. They can be a hand full once shot any you would be attached to it as well! Pole spear, not the weapon of choice, but some experienced guys will do it. It really all depends on your experience level with Scuba. The trip is designed for guys who have Scuba experience first, then the opportunity to learn how to hunt. So yes there are guys there that will give you tips and direction, but hunting tends to be a solo sport and the crew looks for attendees to be sound in Scuba skills first and foremost... This is diving in the Northern Channel Islands... very raw, untammed dive territory.
 
How did the trip go last Friday July 9? I planned on going but had to cancel at the last minute. Any big ones?
