I was out on the Scat Cat week before last and a drifted 'dine either weightless or with a 2oz was a sure thing to get hooked up on some kings. Ling showed up at our last stop but I couldn't get them interested in my 300gr jig and that was all I had with me other than freelining a 'dine. Neither the deck hands or myself could get them to bite and they sank back into the blue in a couple of minutes.

Thanks Chunk for the report! I was beginning to think no one fished P.A. anymore! Those Ling will make you pull your hair out sometimes! Two more days and I'm there!!!

The kings are in close! I got a really nice 48 inch fish last Tuesday while trying for a snapper. My father in law got four on the 4th and we got cut off more than a dozen times (only were fishing mono at the time). They ate ribbons like candy, but saw them caught on sardines and trolled cranks. Most I saw were less than 20 pounds.
