Montauk Cod Methods

[Art Berkman]

There is no place like Montauk !!

Cod fishing last winter was awesome.

Clams were the ticket !!!

A few of us will be making weekly Cod express trips to the Mecca

Right on!

Just curious, has anyone had any success using circle hooks for cod?? How about Cbass. Gonna give circles a try Saturday if we get out for Cbass. I use them in Florida for most bottom fishing, as well as when clamming for stripers off NJ.

We use a Gamagatsu 7/0 Octopus hook all the time for cod on Stellwagen Bank on our charters and there is no reason they won't work down south. Good tips here by very experienced fisherman. Good Luck.

There is a massive school of Cod, that will move in, trust me they will be here in 2 weeks like gang busters.

Just sayin
