Seen a guy catch a nice one on North Jetty a few years back on the surf side past the 3rd bar or so.
Rock Hopper, how often do you see or catch them over there?
Sure does seem like there was bunch back in the day.
Pretty neat.

I think the ling may still be there in numbers - on certain days. All of our ling were taken within a few days of a full moon. We always fished on Easter Sunday with great success......and it just so happens that Easter is the first Sunday after the first full moon of Spring.

I read somewhere that cobia in Florida come inshore or take to the flats during a full moon. It seems that local reported instances of ling off Bob Hall Pier or ling taken from the jetties or the surf are always on dates where the moon was nearly full.

If you know of a date when a ling was taken near shore, plug it into this website and see what the moon looked like on that date.

In 2007 I saw or heard of 5 ling caught off the North Jetty. Usually Trout fisherman using live shrimp. The summer before if you recall, we had calm green /blue water almost all of July and August Jacks, Smacks and Kings everywhere. The Ling were scattered but you would consistantly have a shot at one on the end of the jetty. Landed two that summer in the 30+ range.

In florida like the man said it can look strange in the late spring. Everyone is running up and down the beach on the first big bar looking for ling. That bar used to be about 2/3rds of the way out of the old Navarre pier. The boats had to go around the pier. Many ling have been caught from that pier before it was lost to to the Hurricanes.
