Barnegat Light, New Jersey

Last decent sized fish. Not a keeper, but was quite the fighter.

After losing about seven jigs, I switched up and used a dropper rig. Caught a few more small togs this sized, but only logging this one.

Five hours in and finally caught something decent

Beautiful but brutal Saturday fishing. The sky was clear and the sea was calm, but the air was chilly, the breeze was arctic, and the fish were still full from Thanksgiving. Somehow managed to hook this starfish and taught to myself, "at least Im not skunked."

This was the last 13 incher today... I stayed for a few more hours and caught a few more dinks and lost a few more jigs. I ran out of green crabs so this two day fishing trip is officially over.

So much snapped lines. On the plus side, I got a lot of practice tying leader lines.

Togs weren't biting near the jetty. I had to cast out further, but the current was strong, so I either got some bites or I'm snagging some rocks. I lost a lot of tog jigs today.

More undersized togs. The water was rough today.
