Heard they were catching them on hook and line in stratford by the mouth of the housy off the pier. Anybody know what kind of rigs and or bait to use??? I was under the impression that the only way to catch them was to spear them. I hear they are delicious...
Thanks

I remember a guy catching them some 20yrs ago.Cant remember what he used for bait. Maybe sandworms. I saw 2 of them swim by me @ fairfield marina @ night about 4 weeks ago while i was herring fishing. Tried throwing my jig in front of them with no reaction. What to do???
I hear they are YUMMY and want to catch some.
