Fishing for Ling On a Boat in NYC
Ling, also known as red hake, is a type of cod. They are a bottom feeder that is prevalent in high numbers off the coast of New Jersey and New York. It is a great fish for winter fishing, but also one we can hook all year long.
Of all the fish around NYC, ling is one of the easier species to catch. It is also extremely tasty. This makes a ling fishing trip ideal if you have party members who are new to fishing or if you are looking for a more relaxing trip.
NYC Night Fishing Aboard the Marilyn Jean
Ling is one of our most popular winter fishing experiences in New York City, which is why so many people buy tickets or walk on to our near daily excursions during the colder winter months that we have from our launch point at Pier 6 at Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn. You can come visit us if you’d like to
Our fishing charters for ling are available as half day and full day trips. With either option, we will take you to locations around NYC like Jamaica Bay, Rockaway Beach, Raritan Bay, and more where you are sure to catch an abundance of lingcod.
In addition to lessons to help those aboard build their angling expertise, we provide high quality equipment that includes all that you group will need to catch ling:
- Rods and Reels
- Baits for Ling
- Hooks and Sinkers
- Ice and Coolers
- Buckets
If you’d like an experience for just you and your guests, you can book a private charter, which also has the option to add on a catering package to supply you with good food while you are at sea. You can also bring your own food and alcohol aboard.
With ling often active at night, you can also experience ling through night fishing. Our evening ling charters depart at 7:00pm or after from our Sheepshead Bay dock. Your group will get to see the NYC skyline, bridges, lighthouses, and other features lit up as we travel to our destination, at which point we will fire up the deck lights as you enjoy fishing throughout the evening.
