Good meeting you out there as well, Meadeo. I didn't do as well as you did. I only got a bunch of these shorts...

And did mange a keeper Weakfish.....which this site won't allow the pic to be linked to cause file size is too large...

But anyways, water temp is a touch high.....I will be back in a couple of weeks.

^ wow...first time i've ever heard of a weakfish being caught at CHSP. How big was it?

[KenY]

It was only 16".....a little one.

A buddy who fishes the pier on a regular basis says there are Weakfish all over the pier but where the pier fishermen can't get to them.

Wanted to throw up a quick picture and report from Saturday..

Was nice meeting (Steve) Fish and Kenny. I know a met a few others from the forums also. Lots of kayakers out there Saturday.

Had a pretty good day with a legal tog at 16" and two legal flounder 17.5" and 19"

All right! New truck and new tog.

Catching will improve every day for next 4 -5 week. What was the bait and hook size for the tog?

I managed 2 tog on this same day (just a late post). One 17" and the other a 16.5". I also caught a 2.5 foot Eel. Thought it was a huge tog. Didn't realize how strong eels were. Haha.

I caught the tog on both size 1 hooks and 2/0 hooks. I used sand crabs, blue crabs and shrimp (head on). Shrimp was by far the hottest bait I was using.

Thanks for the Info about the hook size and bait. You are confirming what I and some of us are believing - smaller hooks and shrimp. Definitely Shrimp worked for me over 2 years for tog, and triggerfish this summer. Because shrimp don't give the second chance, I use tandem hooks. Since triggerfish are gone, I will start with 1/0 hooks and shrimp.

So Triggers were still out there. I think 16-17 inchers were there past 4 weeks. I am starting with #1 hook not #1/0 on this coming Sunday

Thanks for the info
