Nice report Kajun! You are right that is one BIG croaker. This late in the season there won't be much croaker left but most of them should be big though.

Nice report Kajun.
I am anxiously awaiting a boat trip with Baddog and Spoolman. That is a croaker 'beast'!

Kajun, I probably saw you out there on opening night- I was out with my wife in my 16.5' closed bow boat(her first striper trip). We got out just at midnight, picked up a few blues and small stripers, then the tide died. About an hour later when it started coming in good things picked up pretty good. My wife outfished me using a yo-zuri plug- she got the biggest striper at 24". I was using plastics and got some trout up to 14", flounder up to 17", and strpiers up to 21". The blues were annoying- I lost a bunch of jigs/plastics and 2 yo-zuris to them, probably $16.00 worth of stuff total. But a good night overall.

I have been reading about the HRBT where can I find it? What is the full name of it? I want to take my 16.5 bayliner fishing this weekend and I hear thats the place to go.
