Default Re: New to Togging

Hey man, I fish for tog from shore exclusively. The jetty bite has been going strong since September. They leave to deeper water once it gets too cold so get on them asap. They are generally a daytime fishery.
A few tips for you:
Slack water tide in clearer blue water is best. Muddier faster water can be tough.
If the ocean jetties are rough, fish the canal.
Stock up on hooks and weights cuz you're going to snag and lose plenty. Same with jigs if that's what you use.
If you snag every cast, move over a little.
Use a larger hook like 3/0 to cull for only bigger Blackfish.
Half a green crab works wonders. Cut the legs off, remove the top carapace.

Good luck! Post up a photo when you get your first tog.
