Is it true that sucker meat is best for the ling?

Seems to work the best for me.  Their skin is tough, and stays on your jig for a long time

For Ling fish between 20-30 f.o.w.  Sucker meat, glow jigs, and don't stop pounding the bottom.  They pin the bait on the bottom, and most ling you catch will be hooked in the middle of the upper lip.

We were out there all day. Pretty slow a few trout and one ling.  Seemed like others around us were doing about the same maybe a little better

Fished it the last two nights. First night one person caught ther limit and I got two, one 24" and one 20". Last night my dad's first time linging he got his limit in two hours with a 26, 24, and 22. Threw back about 6 or 8 under 20s. Had a lot that didn't quite make it out of the hole.
A bad day fishing is better than a good day working.
