TAUTOG (BLACKFISH) FISHING! CATCH, CLEAN & COOK!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ก.ย. 2020
- Hey guys! In today's video I headed out in search of Tautog (Blackfish). It was an awesome day of fishing! I was able to get my keeper Tog that came in at just over 15 inches. In New Jersey, the size limit for Tog now is one fish at 15 inches. On November 16th, that changes to 5 fish at 15 inches. The bait used in today's video was live green crabs. I am still a novice at Tog fishing as it is not easy. They are a tough fish to catch and it is very rewarding when you can outsmart them. I then cleaned the Tog and cooked it on the grill. I hope you enjoy this video and as always, please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE!

Hi friends. Awesome video as always. We love your channel and full view as always for a fellow Tuber
Thank you we appreciate it!
It's good you got one you could keep and eat. Lol!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Can’t wait til we can keep ours up here so i can cook some up
Light tackle hard fighting that is my type of fishing. Looks like a lot of fun.
Heck yea!, they are so much fun, especially on light tackle
Great Job! Success !!!
Thanks brother!
I wonder if we have these fish in the gulf I’ve never caught one awesome video bud you have a new friend here like 101
Thanks so much. They are very similar to a Sheepshead fish
Great video!
Thanks so much D!, appreciate you watching
Great job, both on the catch and also on the cook, Mike! Looked delicious. Have never caught or eaten tog, but it's definitely on the list. Loved your new fillet knife, too! Have wanted to bite the bullet and get a nicer one as well, so this very well may push me to do that! What have you used/done to sharpen it?
I just have a small hand held sharpener and it works great. Highly recommend this knife. Thanks for watching!
Man y'all getting so close to 1k! Super proud :-)
Thanks so much my friend. It means a lot, you've been here from the beginning!!!
Sup, first time filleting taught nice job, my favorite fish to catch and eat, always looking for new ideas, like baking on a grill, will steal that, usually use a fish basket and blackened, on boat or shore can cut for sashimi with a gochujang sauce, or a soy sauce with helpers lol. Family loves fritters, baked with Ritz cracker topping, tacos rock cuz can do anything, just cought 3 tautog and eating for dinner tomorrow, in RI they are biting👊🍺🎣
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Looks like an awesome fish to eat Mike!
They are delicious! Thanks for stopping by!!
Catch and eat😆👍
It looks delicious🤤
Thank you so much my friend!
@@MKOutdoors
I'll cook fish tonight😁👍
Man what a nice one!!!!! Great job my man!!!! You should try the paper clip weight trick... It saves you rigs!!! Instead of tieing weight straight onto line, tie paper clip to weight and to the line.. So if you get snagged your just loose the weight because the paper clip will give out before your line or rig will
That's an awesome idea bro. Thank you!
@@MKOutdoors anytime my man!!! That all i do if i fish bank at rivee... Ive been in boat so you havnt seen it but thats what i do... Give it a try next time
Nice job Mike, let me know when you plan on going again and I will meet you there for some jetty tog.. and I guess all that new fill behind the sea wall didn’t work too well.. gonna need 🥾🥾
Hey Brother!!! Hope all is well!! And yes, made the mistake of wearing sneakers. Im most likely gonna get there this coming Monday. Thanks for watching
M & K Outdoors All is good now, just a little setback with a hip replacement but good to go now, hope to see you on Monday..
@@anglerissues2309 wow, good to hear bro. High tide there Monday is probably gonna be late afternoon, ill probably be there a few hours before. Ill email you my cell number, so we can work it out
M & K Outdoors 👍
@@anglerissues2309 email sent buddy
Mmm mm. I just love fish.
Yes indeed Tom!!!
I’m coming down! Hahah this looks good
Thanks man!! They are really biting there
Saludos mi amigo nunca e atrapado un pez de esa especie bendiciones y ya vienen los stripers
Muchas gracias amigo mío. Es un pez divertido de pescar. Y sí, están atrapando algunos grandes stripers. Gracias por ver
I have tried Tog fishing before. Super frustrating. You have the patience though.
Thanks buddy. It is very frustrating. But still a lot of fun. Thanks for watching buddy!
Cant go wrong with lemon and butter! How big can those fish get? Cool video brother
They get huge, over 20 pounds. Thanks for watching!!
Great video! I have never seen that fish before. Does it go by other names?
I believe only Tautog or Blackfish. Awesome fighters and taste delicious. Thanks for watching guys!
They are the best!!!!!
Yes indeed
Wow nice size Blackfish!!
It's the best for Sashimi & Sushi!
Thanks for sharing!
By the way, is it Manasquan inlet??
Thank you so much, we appreciate you watching!
What time were there on Tuesday ? I was there around 9-10 AM doing some recon (checking water condition & seeing if any action was going on). Tide wasn’t as high as it is in your video.
I prefer using a single hook rig for blackfish as it decreases your chances of getting snagged. Of course it also means that you’ll be reeling in & rebaiting more often.. Another good spot for blackfish is in the canal. Plenty of action but like fluke fishing in the inlet during the summer you have to go through a ton of shorts before you get a keeper.
I think I might be hitting the inlet late Friday morning/early afternoon.
I got there a little after 11. And agree on the single hook. I was using store bought rigs, but actually started tying my own after this video. I youtubed how to do it, lol. Thanks for watching man, always appreciate it. Im probably gonna be there Monday again
Great fishing video
Thanks so much!, we appreciate you watching
@@MKOutdoors hope you get your 4k soon. I'm fighting that battle myself.
@@HowToGardenChannel Thanks so much. I'll start running your videos, help you out
@@MKOutdoors that would be much appreciated thank you
@@HowToGardenChannel no problem
Nice vid. Looks like the Ocean county side of the inlet. If you want to eat healthier you have to replace that butter with something, maybe a little olive oil.
You are right about the inlet. And very true man, i actually thought that after the fact, woulda been much better with the olive oil. Appreciate you watching! Thank you!
@@MKOutdoors I need to practice what I preach when it comes to the butter
@@jerseydevil1066 haha, its so good tho, lol
That’s first fish is nice
Yea man. Hit like a freight train. Even the small ones fight great
Togs are super tasty!
Yes they are!!, my favorite eating fish. Thanks for watching!
How does a nice filet knife compare to a cheap one? Do you feel like you had better success with a better tool or is it more the Chef?
I feel like the better knife makes me better. Im by no means a great filet guy, but a good knife that stays sharp makes it so much easier
I use to fillet fish for a living, its good u got a better knife. U dont want to go cheap on a knife, like they say u get what u pay for.
And that is a pretty strict limit, 1 over 15". Is that because there are not many of them?
Thanks Paul and I dont think so...on November 16th December 31 it goes to 5 fish, then January its still at 4 fish
I wish there were tautog here just wondering are they related to drum?
Thanks for watching! And i dont believe they are.
First!!!!!!!!
Thanks brother, hope you enjoy!
Nice bro
Thank you!!!!
@@MKOutdoors NP man will def be back watching!!
What size Dexter knife? Do you know the model?
I believe it's the 9 inch blade
I would be clueless on how to fish in the ocean. Looks interesting to catch. I’d just eat the crabs. . Lol
Hahaha, these are tough fish Brian. And these crabs SMELL!! Perfect for bait.
No comment lol
LMAO
Baddest Bees buhahahaha. . .
M & K Outdoors Only John. . Lol
Why are you only allowed one fish at 15 inches?
Hey Doug, that was the season regulation at the time. On November 16th, it went to being able to keep 5 fish at 15 inches. State regs
Nice jkb
Thank you. And thanks for watching!
Awesome video man looks like kaylee missed out on that fishing interesting bait though
Thanks so much buddy! and yea, she was in school
