Species: Whitespotted Greenling (Hexagrammos stelleri)
Location: Yaquina Bay, Newport, OR
Date: November 21, 2016
I’ve had better days fishing the hundreds of docks in Newport, but this day wasn’t half bad.
Since I normally go there to target Striped Seaperch for the table, anything else is just a bonus.
Rarely do I fish this area without catching at least one or two bonus species and that day was no different.
When I first pulled up a greenling, I assumed it was the significantly more common Kelp Greenling I’d caught dozens of times, but having just reviewed fish field guides for the Pacific Coast, I realized upon closer inspection it was a Whitespotted Greenling.
This species doesn’t grow as large, isn’t as common, and up until that moment, I’d never even heard of one being caught in Oregon. That’s not to say they aren’t caught with some frequency, but since the Oregon Fishing Regulations don’t picture them, I assume the Whitespotted Greenling is commonly dismissed as a small Kelp Greenling when anglers pull one up.

The bite continued to be above average until something big made my line shake.
“That’s no greenling,” I said to the small contingent of onlookers, and the fight was on. This was going to be something good.

The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iphone and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop,
just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she has
83 views. I know this is entirely off topic
but I had to share it with someone!

Undeniably believe that which you stated. Your favorite justification appeared to be on the net
the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to
you, I definitely get annoyed while people think about worries that they plainly don’t know about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined out

When I got to my room, I sat down to study. That’s how he found me. He started by making small talk and then rubbed my shoulders from behind me.

I do believe all of the concepts you’ve introduced for your post.
They’re very convincing and can definitely work. Still, the posts are very brief for beginners.
May you please extend them a little from subsequent time?
Thank you for the post.
Hi! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers?
My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing months of hard work
due to no back up. Do you have any solutions to protect against hackers?
