Big ling from The Cape. I have several shots and crops including showing the tape not moving in relation to the dorsal spines in 4 shots in a row, but these are taken holding the camera up over my lap before weighing and releasing, the quality's not great - luckily the ling held still. Hawk took quite a few shots, so hopefully he can turn me on to some better shots to put on here. 23.5 pounds. |

As per AOTY rules, we are only able to measure the fish to the closest verifiable hash mark. With the extension verification showing the trough measures 36.75", we are only able to approve at the length of the measured trough. As such, the fish is downgraded to 36.75" as it exceeds the trough length. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact the AOTY committee. -bmb |

Sorry for cheesy lack of photo evidence. Please nullify if that is proper. I have video specifically showing the length of this fish. Caught on a whole herring in 119' of water outside the Whistle Buoy at Shelter Cove. Released in good shape after using pliers to reach inside its mouth and extract a hook from its throat. |

I boated this ling with a whale coming right at me. The whale was 10-20 yards away when I finally had the ling in the net and began to paddle away from the whale. I thought I was anyway, then the darn thing went right under me, the turbulence from its fluke disabled my ability to maneuver. Sketchy few moments before putting the ling on my stringer. |

As previously noted in AOTY comments, Lingcod may not be measured belly down as we are unable to determine whether the mouth is open or closed on the fish. As such, this fish is being approved with a 1.5" deduction as we cannot verify mouth closedednesses. -bmb |
