HAHAHA!!! caught my 1st big greenling today at ambleside! Got there at 4, got the fish within 10 mins of set up... then after the 1st fish was landed. 2 others were hooked. i managed to bring up 2 but 1 swam into the weed/rocks and it got away. had a couple of snag later on. pretty sure it was the handy work of other greenlings.
but non the less. i got mine :D

NICE!!!!! what setup did you use? 8)

12 ft shimano holiday spin, abu garcia AG4F which i got for 30 bucks at Canadian tire brand new :). 12lb iron silk "low vis Green"... basicly tied a wolf river rig with 10lb maxima line without the dropper line with a 2oz sinker.
for some reason, for greenlings at that spot works better if you have a wolf river rig or any rig that ties the sinker in middle and hook in the end. *as i heard from my friend, he catches a bunch of these guys. big ones too*
at 1st i dont really believe him but then after i snagged my line. i hooked up a bar rig and fired out there... only got small soles.

20 inches is a nice greenling!! So tasty.... Were you casting off the northwestern side of the dock? I saw only sole taken from the other side.....
Also, I've heard you can catch perch there....any ideas on that?

Where you using dew worms, or sea worms? Was there awhile ago and caught just a sea cucumber. I was the asian guy crabbing and fishing. ;D ;D
Oh yeah, caught no crabs!
