yep.. Watch one of Elias videos from NC .. He catches a lot of Tog right in a rocky inlet in winter from his kayak... Tog fishing is not a mania down there.. Its a cold weather option that not many people there even take advantage of.. I bet half the fisherman down there don't even realize there are tog in the rocky areas down there....
