Re: scarce ling
As a interesting fact I looked up on the NMFSC website, on the NW Atlantic seaboard we have two stocks of Ling. Our stock we fish for is the titled "Long Island and NJ Stock" where most of the south shore of Long Island and most of NJ fishes. This stock has been in overall good shape throughout the last few years.
The other stock is the George's Bank stock and it extends from the waters off of the Gulf of Maine to Block Island/Montauk. This stock is in bad shape and is considered vulnerable by the NMFSC to future depletion. Most of this depletion has been linked to overfishing,which I believe which was mostly done by commercial draggers, unless the recreational pressure has been bad in the last years. I am not completely sure, but I think it has been mostly from the commercial fishery. Anyway, a little info for those who did not know this. SNAPPERHEAD

Re: scarce ling
like people they move and adapt to conditions ... just like how now the fluke would be in the canyon ....this time of year with mid 30-40 degree water, its more a 'be happy to get out on the water and catch dinner" with ice flow moving out of the rivers , temps will be low .... but soon enough the temps will rise and the fish of all kinds will move in

Re: scarce ling
I can almost guarantee that by sometime in may or june when those temps in 220 or so get where they need to be the lings will be committing suicide... shallow water up by the hook? should be good by the beginning of may... ling are not in any trouble around here folks, not right now anyway...
