Paula Porter, Beaver: Paula, a 19-year-old honors student at Westminster College in Salt Lake City, caught this 200-pound halibut during a family vacation in Homer, Alaska. She fought the fish for 45 minutes and it turned out to be the biggest she has caught in a lifetime of summer fishing trips in Alaska. The fish, as you can see in the photo, was longer than her dad, Paul.
