anyone want to go? looks like we got some decent weather. it's been a week since i fished and i'm starting to get the shakes. if anyone wants to throw me a spot out of pity i'd appreciate a pm as i only target them a few times a year and they seem to be my "white whale" species. how deep this time of year?

Sea Clear II with complete US charts. I bought on eBay here is a link:

There is a nice video demo at the bottom of the page.

nice, 16.95. yet another cool idea I didn't make.

You can print out various local areas, show all your hot spots in pink, laminate them and sell the sheets! If you want partners have them add their hot spots, too.

I went toggin' with my Dad yesterday and had a banner day as this past spring was my first time ever targeting the things as they are the tastiest fish that swim in the sea and I'm not a big fish eater. My other favorite is cod/haddock.

We were along the southside of Naushon Island, on a spot on the charts where the water goes from about 16' to 92' real quick, lots of rocks around and NO ONE else around at all. The waters were crowded with em'. It has to be that no one fishes for the things as there was no one else out. They are a blast to catch too as they put up a good account of themselves despite being anywhere from 1-6 lbs, like bulldogs as they look like them as well with those Chicklet-baby-teeth.

Tog and the cod/haddock are the last fish I catch before the season is over for me so another few weeks and I'll cover the boat up. It is nice being the only one out there with the trees all brown, orange and yellow and that fall light.

Hope you catch em' up out there Niko.

Thanks for the report. I see only a single spot on the charts that matches your description. We'll definitely give it a try tomorrow (weather permitting).

Buzz for Niko

what's a tog? oh yeah those tough black things I used to love to fish for before I got this tuna disease :smash:

looks bumpy tomorrow, be safe guys

c'mon jeff. bang out and come slumming w/ us. seas don't look too bad, it'll be a walk in the park compared to my last trip w/ you :yak5:. we're taking your boat buzz

Anywhere along that shoreline, or even the northside of Naushon is Tautog City this time of year and will be again on the spring. In Buzzards Bay, look on the charts for where the rocks are and that is where the Tog will be, especially if you can anchor among the lobster traps, that is a sure giveaway and the pots are chum for you and the fish, yes!

No one else fishing there, pretty much year-round, no houses, no lights, no nothing but shoreline, rocks, fish and birds. Like Fisheye on here and his "Tog gone wild"-teaser, I have dove the shorelines and am amazed at the fish creeping around the islands, it is wonder for sure. It is good not many fish for tog but it is understandable as there is only a 3 fish per person limit and 16".

Let us know how you do.

Nikko, Fish4,
If youse are going out for pollock
count me in but give me a day or
two notice. Haven't seed youse
guys for over a year.

skimmer, we need to find somone w/ a bigger rig than mine. i'd love to load up on some pollock and haddock. i doubt we can talk jeff into a meat trip unless that meat is red. he's got tuna tunnel vision. maybe we can talk ronnie into a trip if we can scrounge up a few more paying fares. plus it's nice and warm in that cabin of his

Tog day is now Thursday, any other takers to go with Niko and I? Leaving out of Fairhaven area.
