Got my first 2 lingcod yesterday. Took the kayak out at salt point and had a blast. Was hanging whole mackeral a couple feet off the bottom and waited for my rod to touch the water.

Funny how that is... I take too few pictures, I'm always to excited to get back to fishing after I catch something.

first of many I am sure.  My camera tends to stay in a dry bag too.  I remember to take pics right before I clean them.
