Catching Halibut for Jakes Secret Recipe(Seward, Alaska)

We head out onto the waters of Seward, Alaska for an epic halibut fishing adventure! First, we jig for fresh herring bait using sabiki rigs, then run into deeper water in search of barn-door halibut. Along the way, we hook into lingcod, battle a hard-fighting 50–60 lb halibut, and encounter incredible Alaskan wildlife, including humpback whales bubble-net feeding! After getting off the water, we head into the kitchen for an authentic catch-and-cook. Jake shares the restaurant-quality secret fried halibut recipe he learned while growing up at his family’s restaurant in Ninilchik—including both traditional and gluten-free panko options, tips on slicing against the grain, proper oil temps, and meal-prep freezing tricks. 🎣 Video Chapters & Highlights: 00:00 – Seward, Alaska Halibut Adventure Begins 01:00 – Catching Herring Bait with Sabiki Rigs 02:08 – Heading to Deeper Water & Hooking Lingcod 02:50 – Halibut on the Line! 04:22 – Battling a Big 50+ lb Halibut 05:36 – Seward Wildlife: Humpback Whales Bubble-Net Feeding 06:23 – Jake’s Secret Fried Halibut Recipe (Restaurant Background) 06:46 – Ingredients: Gluten-Free & Regular Panko Setup 07:47 – How to Slice Halibut for Frying (Size & Thickness Tips) 08:54 – Where to Get Fresh Alaskan Seafood Delivered 09:43 – Seasoning & Getting the Oil Temp Right (375°–380°F) 10:50 – Breading, Frying to Golden Brown, & Pro Freezing Tip 12:54 – The Ultimate Taste Test: Crispy & Flaky Halibut 🐟 Order Wild Alaskan Seafood Delivered to Your Door: Want to try this fried halibut recipe at home?
