My best friend in high school lives in Alaska. We did all the trips on a vacation up there with them. I believe it depends on what kind of fishing you like to do. With the Halibut you are basically deep sea fishing- dropping bait straight down with a lot of weight and current. The fish are some of the best eating you will find.
Salmon fishing is more casting and presentation even if you are catching reds which do not bite but you have to hook them in the mouth to keep them so it involves some technique. I personally enjoyed the salmon fishing better because of the way I like to fish and catching fish you can see is always cool. Like I said personal preference.
