TC- PB cabbie and nice ling

I drove up to Timber Cove early this morning to see about 15 other kayakers thinking the same thing. I am camping here for a couple of nights so I made today’s fishing session short. I went straight out to about 80 feet of water and used frozen mackerel I saved from Monterey Bay a few weeks ago. Lots of action on small blues then I got my PB cabezon at 22” and 5.6 lbs, then I finished this morning‘s fishing session with a 27” lingcod at just over 7lbs. I made the session short in part so that I could go tide pool exploring at the low tide. I harvested a couple of dozen mussels to eat tonight along with 10 or 12 nice size owl limpets and a variety of seaweed. It’s gonna be good eating around the campfire tonight!

That's awesome and the cooking sounds like it's going to be amazing with limpets and mussels 

Thanks for the report. Cabezon.

Love to bake and baste with butter, spices and herbs. Which ever are on hand. I make multiple slits on the body to absorb the basting liquid.   Trying to fillet a cabezon seems so wasteful for me.

Awesome. Thank you for the report.

I’m thinking of going up tomorrow. Tuesday. Not super jonesing for more lingcod, but conditions look great and that will be it for several months.

Big Cabbie!
Nice job!!
