1 Month to go... 2Lings

Just Jonesin to go fishin here and see it’s about a month away!
Had a couple questions for the smart guys out there.
I think I read somewhere that it is 1 LingCod in 2020? Is that true?
 Wow! You’d have to change ur  current game plan, do to release that 24-27”er  in hopes that something better comes along?
I guess it would be good for the fisheries, a sign of the times?
Also, Live bait-artificial bait?
hhmmmm...

A little fish porn from 2019 for those who  are eager for April 4th!

I haven't done much live bait for lings, so that's a goal this year.

So far, I've only gotten lings on swimbaits and dead chovies.

More ling porn??

These were my first two Legal lings ever last year in June!  blues 29"  brown 26"

 Wow! You’d have to change ur  current game plan, do to release that 24-27”er  in hopes that something better comes along?

Go Big or go Home !!   

Hey Jim
Thanks for the info, and nice Lings
I guess I was confused since the Dept F&W online regs had a grey box with a 1 in it... (old?)
Great news , 2 it is!

Cabs are cool looking fish!
And a mummified Ling head

This link is for Point Area to Pidgeon Point, but I looked at the other Northern california maps and they're all 2 .

It's also listed as 2 on the Fish Legal app. But they have been known to change stuff just before the seasons open.

Those were the monkey fillets that my buddy smoked in his Green Mountain Grill. Turned out super good.

Looking at those rockfish, they seem to be really surprised about something.
