Ling off the beach

[88 Bound]

Congrats and Gig 'Em!

You got that ling just in time. South Jetty closed yesterday.

I saw that posted on Corpusfishing yesterday. I was planning another trip in a few weeks to try again too... Perfect timing!

Thanks and Gig 'Em!

That's awesome. Saw a couple at the Galveston jetties once, but guy in my boat threw a trout rod at them and was cut off immediately.

Congrats! I've only fished in the gulf a couple times, maybe get to go try a few more times if and when retirement days come.

That is the cool thing about saltwater fishing, you just never know when you are going to hook up with something cool and unexpected. Good stuff.

Knowledge of drag and tension with that hook and gear, plus keeping it out of the rocks played a huge role. A real trophy off the rocks for sure.

You forgot the dumb luck part!

You forgot the dumb luck part!

Oh yes, there’s always that as well.

Nice one! They're starting to catch a few just off the surf in the Florida panhandle. I see the boats sight fishing for them about half mile off the beach on calm days.

Man that's awesome. Congrats. Never know what you will hook out there.
