Lingcod
If you're after Lingcod in Auke Bay, you're in for a treat. The waters here offer a unique environment where these predators thrive, especially around the rocky reefs and kelp forests that fringe the bay. Lingcod fishing is best from late spring through early fall, following the baitfish migrations. Focus on areas with strong tidal currents, as these areas concentrate forage. A practical tip is to use large jigs or swimbaits that mimic the local herring; natural presentations are key. Also, pay close attention to your depth finder; Lingcod often hold near the bottom, but will move up in the water column to strike at prey. Be aware that regulations can be strict, so always check the current Alaska Department of Fish and Game guidelines before heading out. Remember to adjust your depth with temperature and current changes. The Lingcod here are known for their aggressive strikes, so be prepared for a good fight!
