I got a nice Ling today. It weighed 8 lbs., and it came up with a 5 lb. Vermilion on the same rig. I thought I had a small yellowtail for couple of seconds - lots of bendo on the rod.
-Anywhere there is jagged rocky structure you will find lings. Point Loma Pipe has a fair amount, and many stones along the 9 will have clusters of them. South Lj can be a mine field at times.
A 2 hook rock cod rig with big circle hooks baited w/ squid works well.
Today was a good day for Reds, most were over 5 lb. here.
