You can tell by my name how much I loved to fish for togs. First off there is a special hook for them, I probably have 100 in the basement. A 40 or 50 pound test leader works best. If you buy rigs you will go broke fast. Tautogs have two sets of teeth, that's why it is really hard to catch them. My favorite bait was fiddler crab which I used to catch in a creek near my house. Someone mentioned clams and that is an excellent bait along with believe it or not sandworms. I'll close with this piece of advice. If a major storm or even a hurricane is 2-5 days away the togs along with many other larger species go nuts attempting to feed. I had a spot by a jetty that was approximately in two feet of water near high tide. There would be bite after bite but a solid majority of them would be throwbacks. I am so thankful that they are hard to catch commercially, if not they would be close to extinction.
I love watching it because it reminded me when I was a young boy going fishing with my family. During the rainstorm and finding a stream coming into a lake and bluegill spawning. As fast as you could put a hook and bait in you were pulling fish out. It got to the point where we could put a bear hook in and pulled fish out. On the other side of the Rock that we were behind. Was raining bluegill and other panfish. Our folks were laughing. Thank you for the great video.
Great video again. We have similar species of wrasse here in Britain. I use limpets for bait which work well but the best bait for a big wrasse is a whole crab with the shell on.
Awesome video, when you told me location brought back lot's of memories, as I was born and raised there before I went into the Navy. Me an my dad would go there, unfortunately I have lost him to cancer back in 2006. Yet seeing this reminds me of the good times... Thank you Very much!!
Hello from San Francisco, cant live without your video, i always check your channel everytime i get off work, it would be incredible to see a video a day in the future:)
Close UP... Awesome. You actually showed how to hook the bait. Most vids assume we know all this and then all they show is HERO pics of their fabulous fishing prowess.. Great Tutorial dude!!!!
For your recommendations, you definitely don't need a long rod to tog. It just has to have to have enough back bone. Tbh shorter rods you have more control. I use a 7ft heavy and it works perfect. Also braided line works well but rocks cut it up like butter, mono works perfectly fine for detecting hits. Ive been toggin for about 10 years and found these to be the most comfortable for toggin
Brandon i use sand flea before n i caught yellow jack small ones on that but green crab i still don't use yet i may have to try it / mostly i use is Shrimp, Sand fleas, Clamp, Squid, Muscles, Small Fishes
Balancing your rod: An angler at our local fishing pier did that - a fish too the bait -- hook, line, sinker AND rod; so, if you value your rig, keep an eye on it! Thanks for sharing!
When using crab for bait i use bait elastic to whip it to the hook stops bait stealers its a super fine elastic thread wrap the crap to the hook 4 or 5 wraps round the bait and it cast better and stays on the hook.
green crab work better for bait but sand fleas aren't that bad, plus they stay on the hook easier. I also love tog/blackfish fishing and your vids. Keep up the good work!
I found out a long time ago when fishing around rocks to use metal coat hangers. Cut a piece about 10" straight and make a little eye at one end and offset the end a little to where the end is even with the rest of the straight shaft. I usually attach it to a swivel eye and loop the hooks with leader about 10" above like you used to loop the oval weights. This don't get caught like other sinkers because they stay vertical when you have tension on it. Give it a try it might take a little to make them, but you don't lose them as much, and it's cheap. Good luck. CJ.
Keep being The difference. I like your style. I watch lots of fishing videos and I like that you are for real. Not a show off. Like most of the people I watch, you know? They are all pros, they know better, so keep it up. And like I said at the beginning, keep on being the difference.💪
Great vids, you can improve your rig by tightening your crabs using an invisible fishing elastic, so you can't get rid of bait stealers. Greetings from Morocco.
Skipper, I love your know-how and the way you explain everything so it's easy to understand. That being said, it's kinda painful watching you reel in a fish by just cranking with the rod high. Pull, crank down, pull, crank down; it's a lot easier. Love your channel!
when i was 12yrs old I saved my $$ from delivering papers to buy my very first NEW reel and it was the Garcia Mitchell 300.. came with 2 spools.. I used it for fresh and saltwater.. never failed me and i still have it 50yrs later. ;)
Actually heading here thus weekend :) First time fishing the spot, first time fishing for tog and only equipped with my gear, bait and Skipper lessons!
Fished for blackfish in NY and NJ for years. Start with half green crabs. If the bite is on and there’s larger fish to target just cut off the claws and send down a whole crab. It’ll weed out the smaller fish sometimes. They do get finicky though. Sometimes they prefer Asian crabs. Some people use white crabs. It all changes and depends but default starting bait was always a half green crab with legs and claws cut off.
Nice videos. I liked this one. It's so true that when fishing for tog from the jetties, that you shouldn't need to cast out a country mile. I also lob just a short distance and feel for the rocks. The braided line will help you figure out hard bottom and soft bottom. I've been fishing for blackfish (sometimes unsuccessfully) for over forty years. I have found that green crabs work well in the Long Island Sound and the ocean, but sand fleas work well closer to shore. It makes sense since they are found closer to shore. I've also found that shrimp, clams, white-leggers, fiddlers asian crabs and hermits all have their moments. I personally don't leave for the ocean without white-leggers or greens. If I'm fishing off the beach, jetty or bulkhead, then I'm more likely to use green, sand fleas or calicos.
When i get pulled into rocks by snapper or grouper if you open the bail some times they swim out when they don’t feel the tension of the line. I have a couple videos on my channel if me doing it with red snapper.
I never used a green crab but blue crabs are very common down here and that’s what I usually use when I go fishing. We live line them and the results are always positive. Love the video ❤️😊
I grew up with What's the metro 300 and I still have them at this day They are a awesome real and easy to work on And I have the riginal Garcia fishing Pole
i use 7ft 6 inch ODM rod fast/ moderate action with a shimano stradic 4000.. these poles can pull in 120lb tarpon but still sensitive enough for black fish. i used to be a st croix fan until i got my first ODM and i have 10 ft odm surf rod as well. i would give odm a shot.
Would like to see u hooking the whole green crab on and seeing if that is just as effective. Keep it up, watching your videos makes me want to go fishing and spend money on new gear 😁
Nice tips for indian river ,havent been fishing there in along time! I respect your humanity of every living creature regardless of its species,i think you just got me back into fishing down state again in delaware im a delawaren . I caught my first big salt water fish in that inlet back in the 90s. Keep it up ! gOODWORK ILL BE FOLLOWING YOU for now on. Peace !
Hey, we use green crab in the UK all the time they are only really an awsome bait when they are peeling though (moulting). over here we call it peeler crab and its an amazing bass bait.
Where do you get sand fleas brother? In the Northeast here in Rhode Island and the Cape Cod , we’re using green crabs . It’s great here . Love your videos boy
You should just use your Saragosa. I have the 6000 and I use it all the time to catch tog from shore up here in Rhode Island. It has the power and fast retrieval to easily pull the big boys from the rocks. My pb from is 23.5 inch using that reel
Thanks i love this channel, been watching for about a year, and i gotta say content is excellent i would love to learn more. Btw get a speedy recovery on your leg/knee.
i like it , i would like to start a fishing channel in my country as there is not so many who are doing this to share their experience so i am about to start . having a camera and fish finder may help me a lot . i like your channel :) thank you for make so many people enjoy
both are great, in florida both work but in Long Island growing up I used crabs [fiddler or green] as no fleas up there... down here the beaches are free bait shops if folk know what to look for
Hey senkoskipper I tried using green crabs for the first time also last week, but I guess I was In the wrong spot got no bites😭, sometimes it's hard to find spots for fishing because everyone is so secretive but I appreciate everything you and the misses do and you are very inspirational, also as a suggestion I would love to see a vid on the difference in fishing lines , I know there are plenty of vids out there about this subject but I want to see one #senkostyle 😎
Have you tried using Jigs for tog before? I usually use 1-2 ounce tog jigs and tip it with crab and drop it down. Works super well for me. Less snaggy that way also, crabs usually work better for me but i prefer sandfleas because they are easy to get and can catch a wider variety of species
Sand fleas work good but i dont like to use crab but my 3 baits of choice are anchovies sardines and squid and you will catch with those baits and more if live
We call them Tatoug here in MA theyre always in the rocks when they bite you gotta reel em in fast or they bring your line into the rocks and you get snagged smh they're SUPER strong and can get HUGE
Hi Brendon. If u cant finish those sand fleas, juz wash em up deep fry em whole. They cook up real quick. After they get all crispy, toss em in some salt, pepper, n maybe some paprika or cayenne for heat. If u can find some salted egg yolk, u can toss em in that too. Dun worry. They're edible. They are serving those on the beaches in Phuket. Cheers!
I’ve had better luck with crabs for larger tautog. The sand fleas have had great days also. I truly think if they are biting those little suckers will eat either. Great vid!
So every year me and my parents go up to Ocean City and spend time with our grandparents. I have tried to fish for sharks in the inlet but never caught anything. This looks like a lot of fun. Do you think these fish would still be there and biting around New Years? If not, what fish would be there and what bait should I use? Thanks!
I just have one question why take the shell off. Wouldn't leaving the shell on and hooking through it make it a tougher piece of bait? Harder to steal?
I love the fact you are from Maryland js Born and raised Annapolis man. Definitely cool seeing people from my home town making video's. Keep up the good work man and always rep MD man. Go Ravens! And your girl is a good camera woman. Better be paying her well for always helping you lol js.
Black fishing is my favorite, when fishing in the rocks you need a short boat pole so you can bring them up quick. If you have a long pole your chances of getting snagged in the rocks are very high. And it is true that you have to wait for the second bite because blackfish nibble first than they suck the crab in after. Up in New York I would use clam when they are small cause their teeth are soft, as they get bigger I would use fiddler crabs, when they get even bigger I use green crabs. I never tried sand crabs but I caught more blackfish with fiddlers than any other bait.
"Crabe vert" in french , my fav bait of all time , personnaly i dont cut them at all (exept legs tip), more le crabe is big more le fish is ! Cheers from France .
Nice video! One tip.. that one green crab can give you four pieces of bait. Fish goes for the smell of the crab. so the smallest piece can get you a big fish.
Have you tried using something like cheese cloth to put the crab in then on to the hook. I have seen it done for carp and catfish mushy bait. I haven't tried it myself, just food for thought.
For tog green grab on a hi/lo rig. Which is 2 hooks (half a crab on each) 1 1/2 ft apart & a weight at bottom (weight size depending on current) Also give seaworms a shot biggest tog i ever caught was on them.
when you trim off the legs and claws, throw them in the water around the area you are fishing, it will sure chum the waters and prime the 'tog to bite when you throw the half crab. Also, step on the crab while it's on the hook (make sure you dont actually hook your shoe). This will release the juice and attract the 'tog out of its hole.
Love it when we fish, we're like little boys, we never grow up.... chics just don't understand! I'm just like you.... love it..... big fish, small fish? It doesn't matter.... love your vids... I'm into vintage reels too....
I have a couple of those reels that I got from my grandfather when I was a kid, 54 now. They still work great.

I am so thankful that they are hard to catch commercially, if not they would be close to extinction.

Aaron's Fishing Show totally agree. I like to use 50 braid but tied to an 8 foot 50 or 60 lb mono lead.

I’m so happy to see the Mitchell 402 on one of your videos. I bought and older reel because of your videos.
WOW,,, AWESOME,,, convinced me,,, sand fleas it is,,, thanks for sharing... 😎🤜🤛
I'm liking the way you're personalizing your editing of videos.
+Lou Davis thanks for noticing! I’ve been having fun with it
Senko Skipper retro gaming is always a win
I'm 57 years old and i have dive that place many times the rocks go out in the inlet more then you think..but love what yuo do
When using crab for bait i use bait elastic to whip it to the hook stops bait stealers its a super fine elastic thread wrap the crap to the hook 4 or 5 wraps round the bait and it cast better and stays on the hook.
Why don’t you go make mayonnaise.
I love how Erin is just answering his questions when he's speaking to the camera
I AGREE. SAND FLEAS. They are a easier bait to work with and just as effective as the crab. Great video once again. Keep it up.
+yaknfish right!!!?? Thanks for watching Gus!
green crab work better for bait but sand fleas aren't that bad, plus they stay on the hook easier. I also love tog/blackfish fishing and your vids. Keep up the good work!
+Dillon L. Fishing thanks we have another tog episode coming our soon, using what’s called a “junkyard rig”
Senko Skipper never heard of that before lol. but yeah tog fishing is addictive, just the amount of bites you get is unreal
Hey I just wanted to say I really appreciate you guys taking the time to make captions. Great videos too👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I found out a long time ago when fishing around rocks to use metal coat hangers.

That used to be a great spot for flinging live eels for stripers. Last time I was there, the old bridge was there.
Actually heading here thus weekend :) First time fishing the spot, first time fishing for tog and only equipped with my gear, bait and Skipper lessons!
Another form to put the cab is (search in CZcams ) the video is in Spanish but see them the video is “como encarnar cangrejo vivo “

Fleas!, definitely
I enjoh all your fishing videos bro..love the way you and the ever bubbly erin explain things while fishing..much love from Singapore..peace out..

Caught one there today right where you are. Small world. Live fleas great, easy to get tight there on the beach
In New York City we use fiddler crab and green crab sand crab rock crabs and blue claw . Also we use clam
Hey, we use green crab in the UK all the time they are only really an awsome bait when they are peeling though (moulting).

Here in Brazil we use Sand Flea, that's perfect to hook Sand Perch and Permit
Great timing! Going Tog fishing this weekend in Longport, NJ! Thank you, great job!
One of the best fishing channel on youtube!
I would also add a crosswind cam to the 402 to make it reel faster and wind the line better.
best vids on youtube,,,you make me want to spend my whole paycheck on fishing gear,,,,please keep the tips coming,,
i like it , i would like to start a fishing channel in my country as there is not so many who are doing this to share their experience so i am about to start . having a camera and fish finder may help me a lot .

10th
TheMasterCasters .........hard.
Lmao I feel, right now I should be studying for Calc but whatever
+TheMasterCasters I️ have yet to try. I️ think it would get snagged so fast in the inlet, that’s why I have been hesitant.
Lol thanks for the cameo, it was a pretty sick hook set.
Sand fleas work good but i dont like to use crab but my 3 baits of choice are anchovies sardines and squid and you will catch with those baits and more if live
The editing and background music in all yalls videos are awesome!
+Tyler Woody thank you! It’s fun and silly, glad you like it too!
We call them Tatoug here in MA theyre always in the rocks when they bite you gotta reel em in fast or they bring your line into the rocks and you get snagged smh they're SUPER strong and can get HUGE
I feel very happy when I watch your video. thanks.
Love the little cutaways nice touch Erin.
Sand fleas work for me when i go saltwater fishing
I have and use a vintage Mitchel spinning reel. Probably my fave.
Great video! I have been fishing with Mitchel reels for many years, I recommend you the 486/488 models. Hope to meet you soon, I live in the DC area.
Hi Brendon. If u cant finish those sand fleas, juz wash em up deep fry em whole. They cook up real quick. After they get all crispy, toss em in some salt, pepper, n maybe some paprika or cayenne for heat. If u can find some salted egg yolk, u can toss em in that too.
Dun worry. They're edible. They are serving those on the beaches in Phuket. Cheers!
Have to try both see how I do thanks guys I have new baits to try out 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
Thankx for the info. I aways had a curiosity of using sand flees..
I’ve had better luck with crabs for larger tautog. The sand fleas have had great days also. I truly think if they are biting those little suckers will eat either. Great vid!
U lucky ass hell to have a down to earth wiffe to fish together like that!!!!
So cool, man. I really appreciate these videos. Very well made. Keep it going!
So every year me and my parents go up to Ocean City and spend time with our grandparents. I have tried to fish for sharks in the inlet but never caught anything. This looks like a lot of fun. Do you think these fish would still be there and biting around New Years? If not, what fish would be there and what bait should I use? Thanks!
I just have one question why take the shell off. Wouldn't leaving the shell on and hooking through it make it a tougher piece of bait? Harder to steal?
I leave the shell on. Hook goes in one leg socket and comes out of another. I think bait with the shell on is better presentation. It works for me.
Hey i was camping there last summer!
I love the fact you are from Maryland js Born and raised Annapolis man. Definitely cool seeing people from my home town making video's. Keep up the good work man and always rep MD man. Go Ravens! And your girl is a good camera woman. Better be paying her well for always helping you lol js.
Black fishing is my favorite, when fishing in the rocks you need a short boat pole so you can bring them up quick. If you have a long pole your chances of getting snagged in the rocks are very high. And it is true that you have to wait for the second bite because blackfish nibble first than they suck the crab in after. Up in New York I would use clam when they are small cause their teeth are soft, as they get bigger I would use fiddler crabs, when they get even bigger I use green crabs. I never tried sand crabs but I caught more blackfish with fiddlers than any other bait.
I fishin with my father and we using sand flea.is verry good thank for your video i like
Thank you for the great videos. What kind of fishing Hooks(brand and size) do you have for the sand fleas, and for the fresh crabs baits?
Yes they work very well also fiddler crabs when the green crabs are big like that you do cut them in half when they're small us whole
Love the intro for green grabs
Thanks for doing this video because I was wondering if sand fleas really did work
I.always did Great with Green Crab especially for Blackfish!! I cut them in half and BOOM, they hit so quick! 🐬
Been watching for a few months now. Some great tips. I'm thinking of making my own CZcams vids. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
Thank for another video. Just wondering how you cooked the blackfish.
Keep up your videos.....i will watch every of them
Love it love it...... very nice video. It's always fun catching dinner while filming. Great job guys😄
"Crabe vert" in french , my fav bait of all time , personnaly i dont cut them at all (exept legs tip), more le crabe is big more le fish is ! Cheers from France .
Nice video! One tip.. that one green crab can give you four pieces of bait. Fish goes for the smell of the crab. so the smallest piece can get you a big fish.
+Julian Johnson that’s a really good tip, I think that would be really helpful to save me time and bait. I’ll give it a try.
Is than an old Mitchell Reel? Those things are great reels that have withstood the test of time.
Have you tried using something like cheese cloth to put the crab in then on to the hook. I have seen it done for carp and catfish mushy bait. I haven't tried it myself, just food for thought.
Watching you fish for Tataug! Really makes me laugh!😁😆😅😂🤣🤣 almost lost that Mitchell !
For tog green grab on a hi/lo rig. Which is 2 hooks (half a crab on each) 1 1/2 ft apart & a weight at bottom (weight size depending on current) Also give seaworms a shot biggest tog i ever caught was on them.
Just get a bear , they are good Hunters too :P ( although they won't be sharing their catch )
when you trim off the legs and claws, throw them in the water around the area you are fishing, it will sure chum the waters and prime the 'tog to bite when you throw the half crab. Also, step on the crab while it's on the hook (make sure you dont actually hook your shoe). This will release the juice and attract the 'tog out of its hole.
Excellent. Thanks for all the great videos you post!!!
We always used fiddler crabs to catch Black fish.. And we always caught them hanging around docks and pilings..
Dude in the back dropped his catch epic!😁
Love it when we fish, we're like little boys, we never grow up.... chics just don't understand! I'm just like you.... love it..... big fish, small fish? It doesn't matter.... love your vids... I'm into vintage reels too....
