Half Moon Bay lingcod headed to market, May 2026
Capt. Scott Dipman ·

On May 29, 2026, Capt. Scott Dipman posted a short video to the Fish Reapers Sportfishing Instagram with a caption that says it all: Half Moon Bay lingcod headed to the market, with a fire emoji for good measure.
Lingcod is one of the bottom fish on the Fish Reapers menu, and Scott works the water out of Pillar Point Harbor both as a charter captain and as a commercial fisherman. This post is the commercial side of the business: fresh Half Moon Bay lingcod on its way to market.
The photo with the post is a still from that video. It shows a man in an orange life vest standing on the deck of a boat on gray water, with the hoop of a long-handled net in the foreground.
If you want to go after lingcod yourself, they are part of two of the trips on the Fish Reapers menu. The Rockfish, Lingcod and Halibut trip runs 8 hours, and the Crab Combo, which mixes crab with rockfish, lingcod and halibut, also runs 8 hours. Both go out on Scott's 31-foot North River from Pillar Point Harbor.
