Just starting fishing this fall at south Jersey shore. Specifically the Atlantic City jetties. Been doing well with green crabs but even better with sand fleas that I catch. Using 30lb braid and a longer (around 3ft rig with dropper loop 50lb mono) rig. 2-3 oz sinker and 3/0 hook, but only catching them in the 13" range. Biggest so far has been 14 1/4". It's now early December and water temp is still over 50 degrees. Not sure how much longer they'll be around
My husband should hold seminars lol 😂 he caught a 20+ lb tautog on a rig conventional in November 2021 in Rhode Island. Look it up. Long Island lethals james Milano biggest tautog filmed being caught ever!
This interesting to hear that Virginia where this guy is from since he’s from Oceans East that they can’t use green crabs as bait. Bottom Sweeper is Captain Dan Schaefer’s company out of South Jersey!
One it's November, Pretty much black fish would only bite. But until then, porgy and depending on where you are, puffer could be stealing your bait. I recently caught about 8 porgies couple days ago. They're still out there. I'd rather use porgy hook to catch both.
go with a lighter leader. Too many snags tog fishing. With A lighter leader you will only lose the leader and many times keep part of the rig. With a heavier leader you will lose the entire rig and tons of line.
He's using a jig called "bottom sweeper". If you search tog jigs you'll find all kinds. What is unique about that jig is the hook is really short so weight sits right under the bait
Late comment, but I will chum by just throwing chunks of crab in the water, crushing shells and claws and such. Try and go to seafood spots and get all their dead crabs for this.

What weight jig in a bridge situation with current ?

Put the hook in one leg socket and out the other

good eatting ohhhhh yeaaaa.
Have to becareful using a lead line heavier than your main. A snag can lose a lot of lines
I use 50 leader and 20 main for jigging usually.
What is the name of the jig/jig style?
Austin Cheynet there’s a company in Hampton,Va squid life lure co. that makes those jigs and more ..

Jigging World sells ones that are similar to them
When jigging for blacks, do you put any crab on that hook?
You have to they crab eaters
You don't need this heavy line. This is insane. It 100% depends on how deep you're fishing. And you don't need to move the jig.
I see a chum pot on your table. Do u ever chum for tog?

The jig type has nothing to do with it 95% of them use the same hook
Lol this guy has zero idea what he is talking about
He literally has 0 idea... I’ve been toggin for 6 years on my boat fishing rock piles and he has no idea lmfao
When they have a southern accent and they’re not talking about their own sisters they have no clue
