Report:
If you like croaker fishing, now is the time to catch them since the flounder (fluke) are few and far between. We caught them on every drift just off Capt. Bob's. Squid and a small #2 or #4 hook on a dropper worked very well. We often had 4 fish on at a time. It was necessary to repeat the drift often to keep catching consistently. A lot of good fish in the 1.5 to 2 lb. range. They were great fun on light spinning rods with 8-10# line.
