Gotta' love a nice showing of local winter cod.

Those big pollock remind me of the summer overnight wreck trips that the Jamaica/Paramount ran in the 80's. Most of the catch was big Pollock caught on diamond jigs with a teaser above. If I remember correctly a smattering of cod, ling and big white hake added to the catch.

Thanks captain and mates for a great trip! Most of the Pollock were caught on clams I believe. Might have been a couple on jigs, but most were on clams by me at least. Those pollock can really pull!

Yup, most of the Pollock have been caught on clams - wish we could get a couple of serious jiggers to put in the effort - think it could payoff!!!!
