I fish a lot of live bait, croakers and piggies and live shrimp.

Piggies? Do you mean pogies?

No, piggies. Piggy perch.

In this area we call "pogies" shad, which are the same thing

I had to look up piggies. Down here we call it pigfish. Pogies are menhaden. greenies are atlantic threadfin herring. All are excellent bait for kingfish AKA King Mackeral. I guess it is just local slang for bait.
