Clam Bait Fishing for Some PORGY * SEA BASS * PUFFER FISH – Got some clams today and set out to do some clam bait fishing. What I like most about clam is all you need is a handful of sinkers, hooks, rod, and reel. Was quite nice out and the fish were willing to bite. Had all the sea bass I wanted with some nice puffer fish. Nice flurry of porgies came in and out and again. Nothing big and crazy but a nice steady bite. 2oz and 3oz sinkers did the trick with the #2 Gamakatsu Octopus bait hook with plain old 30lb monofilament fishing line.

I like the setup. That was my 1st reel .
That bridge is full of wonderful memories miss my father.
I love watching ur video specialy when using old school reel. It' s penn #85?
Hi Jerry, You changed things up today by bridge fishing. The clam caught quite a variety of fish. The clam caught a lot of fish. Did you ever try using a piece of FishBites to one of your hooks? It may not be the best bait, but it will put scent in the water to attract fish. Take care and good luck, Mickey
Nice assortment Jerry. Thanks for sharing.
Fast line fishing from Jerry! Be careful with the big fish on light tackle even though it's a lot if fun
They sure kept you busy out there! I'm are they're doing a clean up on that bridge soon. Took much careless trash = can't fish here anymore after a while. Nice to see you mixing it up in the water. Always happy when the notification comes thru!
Finally some porgy action. Small but promising. Maybe they’ll run into the cooler months.
I’m going to hit the bridge this week , get back into action.
Take care
Hi Jerry I think it was a sea bass not a sea robin or the sun on the camera I couldn't really tell but look like a sea bass we got tons of them
