Back in the 1980s we use to fish cod a few times per month in February and March - all night surf fishing with store bought squid on bottom rigs. A few places in Newport and in Quonny/Deep Hole were the most productive locations. For many years my buddys best surf fish was a 39 pound cod taken from Sachuest Point one night in late February. But most fish were market size. Each year I get questions about the fishery but no one has tried it - I'd rather watch hockey but I'm sure you young guys could take a few if you put the time in. I'll give you the info - all I ask is to be notified if you catch.
