Power Pro Maxcuatro TIP: PURGE YOUR POGIE! once captured, pogies have a tendency to vomit which will likely kill the majority of your catch (in the live well). Basically, let your loot soak, on the side of the boat (in net) a good 3-5 minutes before placing in live well. Made by Ed Shoemaker out of South Florida. Capt. Eric uses a 5/8" mesh for big pogies, 3/8” mesh for smaller pogies. He prefers a 12’ net, but a 9 footer works great, if the larger nets are hard for you to throw. June 2016 www.marshandbayou.com 37
