Merry Christmas

MERRY CHRISTMAS From Myself and the rest of the REELMUSIC SPORTFISING crew

Xmas eve Togging

Had the Del Carlo gang out today for a quick togging trip . Tough conditions up north with the wind cranking but we went looking to try for some Big tog. Young Edward boated the nicest one at 8 1/2 pounds, a few other nice ones were dropped , bunch 4-5 pounders . Total was 12 tog hitting the cooler for the ride home to freezer land. Was surprised to see very LITTLE bass life inshore today. Picked a short under some working birds on the way back in but most of the area that has been producing looked like a desert

Windy togging 12/23

Made a quick run out this morning with Jimmy and Johnny to do some togging. Made a stop at the rocks to jig some bass , but since they were small we quickly headed off to the sticky stuff. Tog bite was slow, but we were able to box 4 keepers each before the wind REALLY started to howl. Decided that the forcast of it laying down wasnt going to happen and ran back down the beach at slack tide to advert a bumpy ride later. Fun day as usual. Biggest tog was Jimmy's at 8 1/2 pounds Dont want to think about the one I lost because of not retying when I knew I should.

Great bassing Tough togging 12/18

Headed out this morning with Jimmy and Johnny hoping for a repeat of yesterdays tog bite. Found some one had pillaged my crabs last night , but we still had a bucketfull and figured it would be all we needed, but the bite was very scratchy and the bucket had alot of empty shells in it, and as Murrphys law would suggest we ran out of bait as the bite got a little better this afternoon . We had a bunch of just legal tog to start the day, which we elected to throw back hoping to fill a cooler with nice roaster size tog. Hindsite says we should have kept those fish since they were legal but we were happy with the 9 nice tog we did keep for the freezer. biggest three today right at 7 pounds.started to head back to the barn at 2 to find some really good bird life, and jigged a bunch of stripers and bluefish (all released today)as fast as the jigs hit the bottom you had a bass on. Alot of fun to finish out a cold day on the water. Pulled the boat back into the slip just as the sun was setting.

TOG CRUSH 12/17

Had a Make up Charter for Brad and Dale today. Since their other two buddys couldnt make it I tried filling the boat last minute but got no interest. Told them since we hadnt made it out and fishing was good we were still going.Well fishing wasnt good today , it was GREAT.Started the day off jigging a bunch of stripers and big bluefish. Filling their striper limit the first 5 minutes. Jigged bass till a little after nine and headed to one of my favorite pieces of sticky bottom.Was a little bouncy and had the tye rap pop on the anchor twice, so doubled up the tyes and didnt move the rest of the day.Drop and reel toggin for the next four hours . with some real slobs hitting the deck.Put our 18 tog in the box then played catch and release with some really nice tog.Biggest pulled the boga down to over 14 pounds,which I was able to release.Next was an 11 pound 4 ounce one I kept because it was bleeding bad( its between the stripers in the dock shot) followed by bunch between 8 and nine pounds..jigged a few more stripers on the way calling it a day at 230/already cant wait to do it again tomorrow

Striper and Tog LIMITS plus 12/11/11

Met Jimmy , Johnny and had a no show who was Sykk for a day of togging this morning to put some fish in the freezer. Day started off jigging bass and blues under working birds that were spread out for a mile. Jig bite was wierd as the bass were on the top and the bluefish were tight to the bottom. After catching a limit of bass and a bunch of blues we headed to the sticky bottom to tog. Was a very scratchy bite, would catch a few shorts and keepers and then had to make a wiggle to get them chewing again . Made a move to a different area to scratch out a limit and throw back a few more keepers. saw bird play and ran down the beach to find acres of bass rolling on top. Jigged bass till the sun set all by ourselves and ran back in on super flat seas in the dark to end a Great December day on the water with great friends.

Good Blackfishing 12/4

Had Craig in from Ohio to try for some tog today. Matt and Jimmy rounded out the crew.. Had pretty good bite first thing on white leggars with Craig catching on fast and Jimmy putting on a clinic. Bite slowed then I got them chewing on my spot and started weeding the keepers through the shorts. Limited out on keepers and threw about half dozen keepers back for another day before the bite shut off. Nicest tog was Jimmys pulling the scale down to over 10 pounds
