 | Fall Fishing for Tautog |
The coastal waters around Chincoteague Island offer excellent
opportunities for catching tautog (blackfish) in the cooler months.
Anglers often use the following baits and techniques for catching
tautog:
- Fish directly over structure, including shipwrecks, rocks, rubble, bridge pilings and artificial reefs.
- Use a basic top and bottom fishing rig when snags and hang ups are not a problem.
- Switch to a single hook rig in areas of extremely rough bottom.
- Carry a wide selection of sinkers ranging from 3-8 oz.
- Use a rod and reel that can handle depths from 15-120 feet, and 3-8 oz. sinkers.
