I planned to fish two places on Last Friday, Mar 11, 2022. Based on the weather forecast, the last Friday was the only good day for a while for both Tautog and Puppies. The very strong wind and cold front would move in on 12th (Sat). Puppy drum wouldn't like sudden temperature drop.
Anyway, I caught 6 tautog out of 10 bites in the morning. I kept three at 23.5", 18.25" and 16.5".
In the late afternoon, I fished Rudee for puppy drum. Once I anchored between two boats, I started getting bites. For 1.5 hours, I landed 4 puppy drums @24-25". I hooked a couple on a lure, but puppy drum got off.
I used a bobber and a shrimp on a 1/4 jig with 3/0 hook. I noticed that some anglers did what I did, using both shrimp and lures. It seemed that shrimp was more efficient than lures by far.
