Hey Dave V, did AF&G come down and check out the ling also? They'll do this on pigs over 60#...they take a tooth and a official length and weight and send you an Alaskan Cetrificate of Trophy fish. My wife has a couple of lings over 60#'s from Kodiak, and like a prior post said not far from Afognak in really shallow water. A blast catching them big bad girls, especially when they're "hitch hiking" on a 10#+ black bass!!!!
