I'm off next week, have we kicked around any dates? I'd love to get some tips for putting some black sea bass (before season end) or tog in the box. The tail end (until they extended it) of the black sea bass season really s**ked around my usual offshore humps around Gay Head. Don't know if the string of hurricanes kicked them off and out, curious are there seasonal migrations, I'm far from knowledgeable on black sea or togs?
For both, do they progressively go deeper/shallower as the seasons progresses? Does the structure change, is their a Black Sea or Tog fishing for dummies book? I found the artical interesting in the latest OTW, I've actually caught Tog on just 4" plasitic on 3/8oz jigs early season in shallow rocks, but its not a pattern I can rely on obviously. The thought of light spinning and jigging is attractive to me. I've also sat within spitting distance from a commercial bailing one tog after the other, looked like the only difference was the crushed mussels he was chumming with every 10 minutes or so.
Are there favorite hook-line-sinker combos for certain depths? Do you rig these in such a way, if you snag the sinker, that is all you loose? I love braid, is that in any way an advantage or detriment, I'd think it would help but two attempts at tog fishing tells me nothing yet.
Love to know what I should be looking for on chart of buzzards bay for spots, yes WITHOUT getting spots. I know what to look for when I'm hitting new striper water, not sure what the key is for these species, other then structure and wrecks and rocks.
Technique talk and identifying good starting spots would be helpful
