That is serious bottom fishing. It is a long way to go to reel in 600-900' of line. But they sure taste good!
I ran across a long liner in NB when I was selling some YFT and he gave me a few . I asked him how he caught them...he dropped the long line to the bottom. (he was fishing near me close to the edge at Atlantis! ) He had quite a few. I brought them home and grilled them that night...was a big hit. Doubt you will see me out there looking for them though, that is a young mans game. I think the peak season is in the early spring. Didn't OTW do a show about them out of NY?
