Re: Ling/Cod reports?
Please forgive my ignorance.. I am a throwback to the old days, when Ling were simply not fished very much in July and August... Ling were late fall, winter and early spring with whiting and mackerel .. July and august nobody really fished for them, the fluking was too good, and if you wanted sea bass all you had to do was go 1/4-1/2 mile off Sea Bright, Deal or Elberon.. Plenty of them mixed with fluke.. Ling were always there in the dead of winter, and I guess thats my flawed point of reference... Decade after decade I fished wintertime ling in shallow inshore areas, not deep water wrecks.
I must stop thinking of ling as the " go to" for mid winter anglers... It doesn't work that way anymore.
In any case, I will wait for spring just like everyone else.... bob
