Lingcod
Lingcod are a prized catch off the coast of Port Hueneme CBC Base, offering exciting opportunities for bottom fishing. These aggressive predators inhabit rocky reefs and structures, making them a popular target for anglers using jigs and live bait. The best time to target Lingcod is generally during the spring and summer months when the water is warmer and they are more active. Focus your efforts around the Channel Islands, where there are numerous rocky outcroppings and kelp forests that provide ideal habitat. Using heavy tackle is essential, as Lingcod are strong fighters and can reach impressive sizes. A good starting point is the boat launch located on the base. Always check with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife for any seasonal closures or regulations regarding size and bag limits. Remember to use a descending device if releasing rockfish to increase their survival rate.
