TOG season!!

Tog are around now and thier numbers will be increasing... I would be out there now but the season doesn't open untill the 1st.. I still see people fishing for them they aren't keeping them at least the guys i seen.... So is it ok to go tog fishing and just release them or no fishing at all till the 1st.

Theres only 1 fish i miss more than stripers and thats TOG!!!!

Bloo, I saw them there this Saturday. Most were on your side, but a few were on mine. They were there in full force on your side this afternoon about 1:00pm.


Where's Mr. Warden?

...Anthony, it really couldn't have gotten much better.....the minute the crab hit the water........BANG!!....BITES!!....if these googs had a clue as to what they were doing, they wouldn't be breaking off on the bigger fishes...(wrong tackle)...

....they were scoring some MONSTERS, but the few I seen break off.....appeared to be DEMONS from the depths of NEPTUNE!!!...

...I gotta stay away from there until the 1st of May, its just too much for me to handle......seeing all that action, and not being able to take advantage of it...

...This lovely lady tipped the scales at 8.5 lbs. and was an even 24"..., not a bad specimen to kick the season off.....


...If you decide to do some Toggin', expect a lot of dead crabs...tis' the season when they do their molting....so they'll die quick sitting in the Baitshop holding tank....but they'll still work!!....and don't be afraid to flip some rocks...you'll be surprised at what you find....(check previous post)...


.....all in all, not a bad day, well over a dozen fish...and mostly all keeper size....(umm..did I mention, all in an hour and a half!!!)... YES, the action was awesome!!....I can't wait for May 1st!!!...I know a few spots in Rhody that are harboring FUGITIVES!!!.....

...thanks fellas, but I didn't do ALL the work....my new Rod kept her in line...or should I say ..."on line".... ...all things considered, my new Ben Doer, was a bit......(bent-over) ...and Specialist, that 7000CL worked like a charm...


Goose, you got the fever alright, you just don't have the antidote ...worry not me boy, you showed me yours...so I'll show you mine....

...JohnR, you did say "Tog-a-thon" didn't you ....let the festivities begin...

Anthony, don't sweat it...May 1st will be here before ya know it...and then I'll practically be living in your state..

......and Striper77, to answer you question.....I caught them standing on some rocks, similar to these...

Bloo my biggest tog (10 lbs.) came from shore about 50 feet from M&D's. I caught it on my Ditch Stick and didn't know what I hooked for a few minutes. Tasted good that night!
