Fished for tautog at CHSP (Cape Henlopen State Park) in DE.
I used whole frozen shrimp (They are sold as fresh shrimp at the most of the grocery stores. I buy usually a 4LB box (50-70 counts).
At the inner wall I caught 3 tautog at 12-15 inches for 2.5 hours first. Other boaters indicated that nothing was going on the Inner Wall. The water wasn't clear at all.
I went to the Outer wall hoping the clear water has moved in. Well, when I got there, the visibility was about 5-6'. So I gave up on spear fishing. It was also slow at the outer wall. I fished the bayside first for 1.5 hours, then moved to the ocean side. I lost about 12 rigs. 3 were by tautogs. I think two were good sized based on the tautogs caught by the two anglers on a boat (on the video). I landed 3 togs at 14, 15.9, and 17 inches.
