Finesse Jigging MONDO seabass and Porgy with the jig worm

Fished a short afternoon window in the middle sound (NY side) looking for fluke mainly but knowing that seabass and porgy were likely going to be the by-catch. The wind just tends to pick the seas up more out here where the Long Island Sound stretches about 17mi wide from NY to CT. I didn't make it to the further ledge I initially wanted to try but the scattered boulders provided plenty of action with trophy-sized seabass and porgy in the mix.
