You definitely do not need a 10 foot surf rod for that type of fishing. I use a 6”6 tsunami trophy slow pitch with a jig and catch huge black fish in maybe 4 feet of water off a jetty.
I guess my jettie set up is unconventional. I use a 6'2" lews and a penn with 15lb braid, tog jigs from 3/4 ounce to 2ounces and I cast rather close and build a bite. Less fun with the bigger rods but better control. Gonna give your type of set up a try. Tight lines!
Hey we appreciate the feedback! I don't think there is necessarily a right or wrong way when it comes to fishing, its what works best for you and what do you feel most comfortable with. Thanks for watching and commenting. Best of luck on the water!
I prefer #3 Virginia hooks because of the longer shaft. Most tog rigs have 3/0 or 4/0 octopus hooks. The longer shaft gives more room to hold the green crabs. Hope this helps. Thank you for watching!
Lol, I literally use a tsunami trophy II and a penn battle III just like this guy recommends. I use the light trophy II in 10ft rated .5 to 1.5 oz and the battle III in a 4000 size.
Anyone else notice that the guy in the background is absolutely hammering the taug!
Destroying them
Awesome video very informative! Thanks guys!

Great tips... We drove by in the background at 17:04 ish. Looking to hit the inlet soon.
Great video, what knot do you use to tie the leader to the line?
I use baitkeeper rubber bands for my breakaway rig. Where I Tog fish once you are stuck you are not getting your sinker back

I already paid too much for it, the big stupid rod is coming down the jetty with me.

I caught 16 there yesterday, no keepers. Used sand fleas and finally ran out of bait. Thanks for the info!
Mind tell where this is ?
Hey Dennis, sorry for the delayed response. Thank you for watching!
Its the north end of LBI. Its the Barnegat inlet jetty.
Great video guys you ever think about using golf shoes on the rocks but what you think
That's an interesting thought...We haven't thought about that, but I will ask around and see if anyone has tried that.
What size of hook is good to catch a keeper?
Great video, what size hoods do you recommend d?

One thing I think is good advice is do not wear jeans or clothing that will sink you if you do happen to slip and fall in the water .
Good advice. Thanks for watching!
