RIGGING FOR BURBOT / LING - ICE FISHING

This video shows a couple of very basic techniques for rigging rods and tip-ups for burbot / ling. Nothing fancy. Burbot are not much to look at but make excellent table fare. In Flaming Gorge burbot are an invasive species that compete with other game fish, so catching and keeping as many as possible benefits the entire fishery.

@69mrcrash Hi to answer your question Burbot or ling as some people call it do tend to have stronger coloration when they are young and can have coloration anywhere from yellow to black. The coloration fades as the burbot get older so that is why it is odd to see a burbot blue like yours had been

Nicely done, great info logically presented. Thanks!

@SammySosa1234567. I am pretty sure this is on Flaming Gorge Res. This reservoir is well known for its lake trout and kokanee fishing, but it was illeagally stocked with burbot a few year back. There is no limit and you must kill the burbot if you catch them.

@lh141 I made that mistake once, stuck my hand down a big one's mouth.

@Coulas09 wanna bet they dont have teeth?

@coulas09 this is a monofilament leader not a wire one....for less visibility of the line near your bait . this is necessary fot staic lines especially where a fish...esp a ling has lots of time to stare a a big opaque braid main line....it matters.
