Ling Cod is what fish'n chips use to be made out of untill Polluck took over back in the 70's.
Very mild white fish--great eating--as you can tell--I have caught alot this year--LOL
Here is Ling from Day one and combined catch from day two. Not big hali's--but the best size for eating.

That is almost a average run for me----when the tuna hits--I will run from 30 to 60 miles out.
I have rigged her accordingly--2 VHF w/DSC,2 GPS chartplotter, directional finder, Offshore jackets, inflatible lifevests, MMSI number and calling list, aux motor, etc, etc. I take this offshore buisness serious.
The V-20 handles it great too!!!!

:beer: Nice Fish Nice Boat!!!!!!!
I love jigging for lings and yelloweyes I'm going to be setting my V-21 up the same way I got most everything on and ready to go. Last thing to do is wire the downriggers and install the new Lowrance HDS Plotter/finder. It will see the coast in july for springs lings and other fishy things:sly::sly::sly:. I got a navionics SD chip for your area it dosn't do much good to me and trying to give it to someone who could use it. It came with the boat when i bought it and now have upgraged most of the electronics. The guy's on the lake next week will all be looking for a Wellcraft when I hit the water. What a boat first one in this neck of the woods.
