What the???

[SquirrelHunter]

Went ling cod fishing in the south sound yesterday and no lings, but these guys were like vultures every time Id hit the bottom one would latch on. What is it? oh, and got a flounder

sculpin

[SquirrelHunter]

That's what we thought, but we had so many various colored ones I wanted to double check

[Smossy]

Bullhead.
This is the one I got last week. Yours might be different? Im not sure.

I think you nailed it, looking at it again it doesnt quite have the sculpin shape I am use to anyway. Sculpin are good eating too, just can't remember the regs on them. I don't think there are any regs for irish lords, they probably just consider them bullheads im guessing.

Never heard of that one. lol Id have to laugh at the name if I was out there and didnt have google to refer to

[Smossy]

His red one is cooler then mine anyhow. It was one of the largest bullhead Ive caught out there though. Was probably close to a lb.

Close in relation to red irish lord, it says they are considered as bullheads too. Just never seen one with that bright of coloring around here. Bullheads suck a$$ when fishing.

Either way it looks like dinner.

That is a fatty bullhead no doubt!

[Smossy]

Are those bullhead edible? I didnt think they were, We just throw them back usually. Theyre decent fighters on small gear
I may go hit spanaway lake today for trout, Was out there for a few hours the other day and probably seen 30-40 trout landed. Not a single one for me though I heard there was a 30 inch 4lb rainbow brought up to. Kinda hard to believe but it was told by the boathouse owner and he usually is not one for fish tales.

lol @ Me saying German rainbow, Thinking one thing, saying another. Haha. Good eye, Goldeneye*

[brokenvet]

I cut those *censored*s up for bait.

[SquirrelHunter]

Couldnt focus on lings cause every time id drop down one would take it, i like to catch anything that bites but it was getting old fast

Red Irish Lords are pretty cool.

Next time you catch one, take a close look at the eyes.
