Jetties are one of the absolute best structures to fish around during open tautog season. The dark, submerged rocks often hold more fish than we anticipate as anglers from above.

April is only a couple weeks away, and soon tautog will be on the feed again.

If there’s no jetty within reasonable distance from you, that’s okay; there are several other options for locating shoreline tautog before you chance stumbling over rocks.
