Trolling for Lingcod off the Coast of Depoe Bay, Oregon
Recently on a salmon fishing trip I guided off the bay near Depoe Bay, Oregon we kept catching lingcod while trolling with herring. This is highly unusual because bottom fish are often caught using jigs bounced off the bottom. This went on all morning and a idea came to mind, why not do this on a regular basis? On the last two trips, I have had clients try my normal jigs with very little success. We retied gear to a mooching rig and boom! Limits of lingcod and bass, so if the next time your out and the fish have lockjaw try trolling.
