Re: New to Togging
I'm sure it's not impossible to catch them at night but i don't think i've ever heard of that either... If you want to catch them from shore, you'll have to get info from someone that's done it. I'd imagine it's a real pita with snags bottom fishing rocks from a static shore position though.
I'd highly recommend getting on a boat of some sort that's known for good tog fishing. They'll get you on some good spots, then you just have to worry about getting bit and winning the battle haha that's the tough part.
Once i started using a jig for tog, I now ALWAYS try to get away with it if i can. But, that being said, it doesn't always work; it's not always the way you're going to get them. You have to be ready with bait rigs too.
If your biggest issue was getting snagged try a lighter weight and a break away loop on it. so basically you'll snag just as much, but you won't have to retie the whole rig when you break off (just loop another breakaway and weight on, much less frustrating) and if you hook a fish you don't have to worry about fighting a snagged weight and a strong fish at the same time!
