I was happy to finally get into a large school of 24" stripers off Westport Saturday, was none stop action on light gear, until I finally had to move to go after some tog for diner. I've finally dialed in the plastic bite for Tog and had a no probably getting a quick limit and when I moved to Sakonnet Point I wish I waited a bit to kill the first 3 keepers; I could have upgraded by 3-4 lbs easily.
The more I fish tog with plastic, the more fun it becomes; brings me back to my freshwater jig and pig days. It takes some getting used to it and the right tackle is key in order to throw the 3/8-1/2 oz jigs needed to get (slowly takes some time) to the bottom, but not get hung in weed too often, but I caught a dozen nice 18"-20" fish before engine overheated forced me to call in sea tow for a slow poke ride back to the Westport ramp.
Time to throw some money into that hole in the water
, not like I haven't been there before.
