Day 2 - Caught our limit on Blackfish again. 75 degrees in October, and on the fish all weekend !
If Ziffy asks you to fish, do not say no.
No sea bass but the Togs left us arm weary.

Did you hear about the crab that went TOG fishing???
He pulled a Mussel!!!! (santa) (santa) (santa)

Looks like a greeeaaaattt time
-
that's the only thing I dont like about fishing for them is cutting up them crabs.
-
As you can see in this picture, I use Neoprene gloves and a pair of scissors to trim off claws & legs, then snip them in half . . . . .I always do it once anchored and use the claws & legs as chum to ring the dinner bell!
-
good idea with the gloves.
-
I'm more scared of the Tog's than the crabs!
-
Good deal Ziffy!
I'm fishing for them out of Montauk. Jumbo seabass are crazy at Block Island too.

Good Bull!

Looks like the crab tried to cut your pointer off---need to get a new glove 8)
how would you describe the Tautog flavor--and please don't say it taste like fish......
How far is the run to where your boat is?
