Title: Springs and Lings
Post by: Hardy Boy on June 11, 2018, 04:42:01 PM
Had a guide buddy invite me along for a trip as he had to do an orientation trip with one of his new guides. Started off with a nice spring which got taken by a seal, then my buddy got into a nice fish which fought like crazy, no seal, and it went 31.5 lbs what a beauty for this early in the summer. We made a move and really stated hitting fish , but we only went three for six and I lost two nice ones (I blame it on the red wine the night before !!!). We landed three around 12 lbs. Also picked up a couple of small halibut on the troll that the guys wanted. Then a quick run to fish for lings in 60 feet of water kept five 10 to 15 lbers and released a few looking for a bigger one. I caught a huge cabezon that I released (sorry no pic). I have never eaten one but i hear they are tasty. Nice day on the water.

Nice day,salmon,halibut and lings. Went for the slam!  Cabazone taste pretty good similar to Ling  cod and a lot of them have green meat. Turns white when you  cook it like green Ling cod. Hard to judge which one is uglier my
