Real men dont catch tog....
They catch BLACKFISH;;;;
never called it a tog will I met SoCo boys...
we all know real men catch em from boats anyways... in Dec... when its below 0 wind chills
it's the most wonderful time of the year
E' I hope you do a better job of filleting them then you did on the one I gave you; course they get hard to fillet when they are the size of keeper bass 
Tony; anything over 10 is a moose...
my best is 14+, my old mans best is 17+.... I love blackfish |

In case I didnt make it clear;
I love to catch blackfish...
The only time I tried it from the surf I got skunked, but met the elsuive goosefish for the first time
In the boat; 40lb mono, no leader, 3 surgeons loops, top two get 8/0 hooks, the bottom gets a sinker... put the biggest F'ing crabs you can on and go for it

Spence;
Never take the legs off!!!! hook it through the knuckle at the base of the legs, the legs add the the attraction.. blackfish are visual hunters...
sharp hooks and a HARD hook set..
On green crabs I leave claws and all, just take the claws of on bigger crabs

i'm new here, but i respectfully disagree. i like the legs off cuz i think it's easier to get the crab in their mouths. they're not bass. they got relatively small mouths.
i also dont like whole crabs. we use only crab halves (i think it smells a whole lot more) with no legs.
we do ok. you should see the looks of the boats around you that arent catching and your cooler is full and you're throwing back 5 lb'ers.

JoeyM; Welcome and it's good to disagree...
Just my opinion; legs on... we've been togging for generations, when I grew up we were still selling rod and reel....
I haven't had a season without a tog over 10 in a while...
Big crabs, big hooks, big togs, do other methods catch? of course...
As far as a small mouth, we use baits the size of my fist... tap..tap..BANG..
They can open that maw up pretty wide....
when you see the expression on boats when you toss back 9's and 10's....... |
