 |
|
| I hit the Port A south jetty Sunday morning and was able to land a 46" Ling on light tackle. Big thanks to the folks that helped me get her on the rocks. Not sure how to post pics but I can send them if someone wants to post them for me. I've been a lurker on the forum for years but finally had a reason to add to the board. Tight lines! |

| I'm sure there have been others, but I've never known anyone to catch a ling off of the Port A jetties. |

Years ago I actually caught one from the beach south of Bob hall. Used to have it posted here on Corpusfishing. I can't find it on my phone anymore. It probably disappeared to the cloud somewhere |

| Back in the late 50's and 60's there was an annual run of Ling in April at both Bob Hall and Horace Caldwell piers. A big white squid was the ticket. |

Had to use the hot tub time machine to find this post. Even "he who shall not be mentioned" had a comment on this one.

| One of the guys that helped me land her told me that he's caught quite a few off of that jetty. I'm sure most folks don't much talk about it. It was a cool story and I figured I would share it. |
