Trinidad rock fishing

[alanw]

I don't know about wide open for lings, a couple of locals were kinda surprised and said it was unusual to catch one off the pier. Although it was pretty wide open on greenlings and starfish

Cool story with it too, he was fishing frozen anchovies and got a birdsnest when casting out. He was messing around with the line trying to undo the mess when he felt something on the line. He dropped the rod and had to hand line it up! I guess all the movement he created with the line got the ling to bite on a dead bait, where I read they only eat live bait.
