Well, I had some real nice conditions and a full moon to play with last night. I trolled around looking for bass and blues. I only had one cocktail bluefish and a bunch of hits from Porgies. I couldn't get away from them. They hit everything I put in the water including a 7 inch chicken scratch A-salt bomber . Before I left, I tied on a 1/2 ounce jig and laced it with a sandworm. OMG!! those things were hitting it before it reached the bottom. I caught a bunch and saved a few for the grill. Not really what I was after, but still a fun night out .

I think Tomcat will agree with the chicken scratch. Baiting the tubes with sandworms was asking for trouble. I figured the pork chops would leave a plug alone...nope, They slammed it!

Thats awesome news and great to know that porgies will go after a chicken scratch. Yeah I know Tomcat is a believer in the CS, he convinced me into carrying one and using it.
