Looking for GIANT LINGCOD with a GoPro!

- While fishing the wild Shelikof Strait in Alaska, I wanted to try a certain hump for some Lingcod. The weather was so bad though, that we were only going to stay and fish if there were good fish there, so I decided that we would do a quick drop, and drift over the top of the area, and see what came up. I had the GoPro on board so I rigged it up and sent it down.
We did the drift in about five minutes because the wind was blowing so hard, without any bites, but then as my guy was bringing it in he said he got hit! We checked the bait and there was definitely bite marks in it, but the wind kept getting worse and I didn't think we could fish it so we moved off to get out of the weather.
After I got back though I checked the footage and WOW, I need to go back and fish that spot again!

We were trolling for stripers with big Rapalas. I was getting big hard hits but not hooking up. Found a video that showed the fish were banging the lure to stun it, not eat it. Went back out and when they hit the lure, I let out line to slow it down and then they came back and ate it. Never would have guessed that they did that, but a couple of minutes of video and it all made perfect sense.
Interesting! It's pretty cool figuring out what they're up to! I have another video of giant Lingcod I'll work on posting where they only looked at the bait for the longest time, until it started to come up. Once it was well off the bottom they NAILED it!
Wow, that area is thick with big boys. It didn't even look like a rocky area.
It was a sandy area, with a single piece of structure to break the current. They're all just sitting on the nice soft bottom out of the current!
I think if you had used a 10ft leader with a treble hook you would have pulled a few up. Or a piece of salmon for bait.
Yep, there's some refining to do with that setup. They hit jigs just fine, but it's hard to get good footage with a jig, so that's why I had the flounder!
Try Cut Bait Too, see what happens, Here in Nor-Cal the Lingus really likes the Split Curley Tail Soft Plastics, That's a bunch of big fish in 1 area, Any Ideas as to Why?✌❤🤗Tight Lines Too
@@hulihulichicken check out my other video of them around the shipwreck; it’s one wreck in a large area of no structure, so they’re all surrounding it!
Damn- So close! Crazy how the bait is as big as it's head
What might help is using a strategy where you put a hook through a dead sardine and bend it (Reference: ruclips.net/video/JycscWcj4ew/видео.html) so it spins as it move. Like some of the other comments suggested, a simple trap/double hook would also work wonders!
Probably! It hooked them when they bit it, it's just amazing how many of them passed on biting it!
