Moo and Nando, great job catching the limit of lings.

I was there on Friday, recognized the car. I was fishing inside the cove off the rocks, glad you did well! I didn’t stay too long no action for me! 🤙🏼

[@MooMooOutdoors]

Yeah the bite was slow then it got slower as the red tide moved in.

[@theoldsurffisher1943]

Very nice lings!! And you caught your gaff back again!! Red tides seem to be more intermittently, common and in many more coastal waters

[@MooMooOutdoors]

Must have floating gaff Haha. I think warm water with 🌞 light is big contributor of the red tide.

Now that's making the best of a slow day. I have to find a way to taste some of those fish.

[@jonconner3019]

I was at SC on Monday (last day!) and had no joy except 10+ mackerel and handful of smelt but I thought way to big to use as bait. They were huge!

[@MooMooOutdoors]

Big bait, big fish. Haha

Quick story. Fishing near elephant rock on Aug 1st a few yrs back on sea angler we couldnt get through the schools of mackerel with our white flies to get rock cod we filled 2 tubs in no time. I set 1 up (about 12-14" on a trap rig. These were fresh dead mackerel plenty of scent & fear pheromones. Got smashed b4 even hitting bottom. Caught 9 lings that day & another 9 simply snapped my line like nothing. BIG fish that bent my phenix 20-60 lb rod like it was a toy. If you are lucky enough to catch fresh useable oily fish rig em up & get them down there. That was my best day ever on lings.

[@robertd8224]

Nice catch - question can you use sabiki rod in water for bait while you also have a line in for lingcod?

[@MooMooOutdoors]

Thanks. No you cannot since rockfish has 2 hook restriction. When my other line was in the water, there was no sabiki on it but just a descender. When I had sabiki on it, it was out of the water.

No more branson bait?

[@MooMooOutdoors]

Branson Bait is still my favorite swimbait and have them as a backup. It just feels good to catch fish with the bait I caught myself.

세프란시코 인천입니다. 최고~~~^^

[@PacificCoastHunterz]

Man, I cringed when you dragged the 480 across the rocks... lol

[@MooMooOutdoors]

😂 there are very smooth rounded rocks. I wouldn't have dragged my kayak if they are pointy and abrasive. I like my kayak too much.
