Sorry Doug,

Joel sold me a superb Nikon FX 70-300mm lens for my new D5500. (Which I am elated with.) And with a trip to Newport Or coming up in a week, my budget is blown.

But just DAMN, that is a nice fish. Congratulations.

I caught a little ten pound lingcod last summer out of Newport,and I am hooked. They are like meth, one hit is all it takes.

I may just have to figure a way to get to Kodiak, if that is at all typical of the fishery!

Do you mind sharing the specs on the fish?

People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
