Nice haul!

Lings have only ever came in 3 sizes for me 1) legal 2) Nice! and 3) GIANT!!! You have a prime specimen of a "Nice!" one and bonus points for the green one. My grandma who spent summers, when she wasn't teaching, helping my grandpa run his commercial tuna troller swore the greens tasted better. Since they cook up white anyway we offered he some long that we told her was a green one. She swore up and down it was the best "green-ling" she'd ever had until we told her. Then she swore she was just being nice and knew all along. I always think of that moment and the laugh we got out of it when I land a greenie

If I may, where do you set those light traps to keep them from being washed away in the drift? Lee side of Haystack? We find one about every other year off the mouth of the nestucca and/or sand lake that have been washed out
