Landing a halibut without a gaff? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

It is not a good idea for you or the fish to try to bring a large one into your ysk for a photo. You will damage or lose gear when they go balistic. And they will damage themselves trying to get free. Get your camera out as you bring them up, cause there is no rush. Or , as Tony mentioned, turn on the video and snap a shot yakside and release.
