For the fun of it I'd use a floating or shallow diving plug. Cast and whack.   Make sure you got a real heavy shock tippet in front of your plug as it sounds like that plug's gonna get abused.

#1 - 1 or 2 oz. jig with black hair, (swim the bait)
#2 - Salt water Rapala in Silver w/black back
#3 - Small salt water popper in silver (do not set the hook on the visual hit, wait until you feel the fish)
You need somebody to ride with you?

Not all, still learnin, i don't catch to many big lings,but i think thats because i'm always tossing the crap that them damn bass eat lol and always catch a crap load everytime i go out! They eat anything u throw in front of them, so really don't have to figure out much!

use to fish the seabass in the PA harbor off the log booms as a kid. Good way to spend the afternoon catching bass.. We used the 1/4 oz white feather jigs, but minnow rigs worked best.

My favorite tactic for lings is whole herring fished about 10 ft off bottom.. lings will come up to it but the rockfish won't . If you start hittin rockfish just raise it another 5 ft. We would run several rigs with jigs for the rockfish and one ling rig. Another plus is picking up the occasion king.

live flounder work excellent on 5/0 -6/0 red hooks tied like a big mooching rig.......we kill'em off of shilshoal like that........when your flounder really starts to fight on the end of your line .......hold on cause something big is about to eat it
