Tog Fishing

Looking to do mainly some tog fishing, swap some trips at the moment, your boat my boat sort of thing, or whatever. I only have a 17'r but if the weather is OK, no problem. I have been fishing the Groton area, open to trying new areas too. I have a pretty flexible schedule for the most part so quick week day trips work good too.
Tog fishing has been outstanding this year!
If interested send me a message, we can talk and see if we may be a good match.

Sounds good, not looking for a free ride, always willing to pitch in.

Bring lot's of 4 - 8 oz sinkers and 3/0-4/0 Octopus hooks!! If your not losing rigs, your not in the right area Razz

Just so we are clear we are talking 4 oz to 8 oz sinkers. The hooks I prefer are as I stated and the skipperj9 is correct about getting a good quality hook. You want a pretty stiff boat rod with a conventional reel. I'm not talking a Blue fish boat rod..just something with some backbone.

Lung, when does the season start? I have an array of salt water equipment. Will have to get the hooks though. I need more knowledge but have a 29 ft boat that should do the job!

Hey Jeep, I myself won't be after the Black fish till OCT 1 when the fall season opens. There is a summer season but I focus on Fluke for the most part. Your boat sounds plenty big enough Wink

Where is your slip?

I'm in Chester. 45 minutes to the sound. The flats in Greenport are killer for Fluke. I've just dug out some gr8 pics that I'm going to post soon.
