Long Island Toggin'
Made our second annual trip out of Port Washington, Long Island on a NS for some Blackfish Jiggin on the light spinning tackle. We used 1/2oz-1oz jigs tipped with Asian and green crabs. Got lots of bites and shorts, but the larger Tog didn't really want to commit to the jig. Typically the larger Tog will "run" with the bait and jig....this only occurred on a few occasions...We took home 5 legit keepers, not the "ten pounder" we all hoped would give us the fight of our lives on the light tackle! Not sure if it was the hard west wind, the full moon, warmer water temps or what....All that mattered is we tried our best and we had a good time tryin! Until next Oct!
