Stone Rock

[reeltor]

Gave it a shot this afternoon with an old buddy who doesn't get out very often. Armed with soft crabs, the last few hours of the ebb tide, and a fairly calm bay things were looking good. George at Tyler's told us that the evening bite had been good and that one of his customers had done well yesterday. Counted at least 10 boats motoring around looking for Drum as we were seaching. Found the marks but no takers. I don't think its hot and heavy but the Drum are in. Ended up with some Rock we jigged up near the lighthouse earlier and some NICE Croaker on Stone Rock. Be prepared with several rods as you will lose rigs. We used a combo of egg and bell sinkers and lost 5-6 of each....price you pay.
Another BEAUTIFUL day to be on the water

Thanks for the report reeltor.

It's clear they are there, now when will they bite?...I am betting on friday....wind and wet cooperating.

Last years bite was insane one day...dead the next...gotta go to know..

TIGHT LINES!!!!

Thanks Paul; I've never fished for drum; but the nice croaker bite interests me. 5th Marty

And the bait ain't cheap either.

Nice going Paul, I agree with Marty, that croaker bite sounds great....Don
