I got an 8lb tog on a slug two years ago. It looked like it swallowed a softball, my thought full of eggs. Never try to make rule in fishing, there is always a story to contradict it.  |

6 " sluggo's on a 1/2 oz jig head at Beavertail in the spring. Many, many 5-6 lb togs would inhale that thing. Lots of fun and surprising

Got a friend who used to catch them pretty often blind casting for bass with a flyrod, a sinking line, and a long (6-8") slender clouser type fly. He used a pretty fast strip retrieve and they obviously must have chased it down. I used to try to target them sight casting with a fly rod in the spring when they're grubbing on sand flats. Would see a lot of them but never caught one. Sometimes I would find medium sized bass following right on their tails scrounging up whatever they stirred up. You can also get them pretty regularly vertical jigging with small metal (particularly under peanut bunker schools).
