Burbot eggs are copper colored so try copper.

This time of year Birdpoop island is one place where lingcod like to spawn. Late Feb and March was always good around the island. But I'm not telling where the island is on Pigeon. Some will know where I mean.
All depends on where you set up for the whites on Pigeon. The morning bite lately has slowed compared to the beginning of the month but it’s still been pretty decent.
As for the Burbot spawn, I remember hearing from the old boys back when I was a kid on how when they caught a Ling, they’d “shotgun” the hole by squirting the Ling eggs into the hole and go back the next day and slam the Whites. But some of those old boys did tell quite a few stories. Lol
