Got this off oak Bay on the weekend.. it was bright red. Looks like a lingcod or maybe a cabezon. Released it after a good ling like fight. Thanks.
Yes Cottidae for sure but there's a couple dozen kinds in BC waters IIRC.Sculpin of one kind or another.
That makes sense. I have caught many fish off oak Bay but never one like this. Are they good eating? I would think not...lol
Its a Red Irish lord, Sculpin family.
