04/05/17 Croton point park from shore. High tide was best. Fish caught between 6:30am to about 9 am. Bloodworms. Me and 3 family members caught about 15. All about the size in the picture. My father set the hook, got stuck, came free and before I could net it, he lost about a 20-24 incher. My buddy Steve has a 26 incher already. Get out there!

4/7/17. croton point park. Fished from 6am to 11am. High tide was 8:45. I personally caught 9 fish, biggest in picture. Dad caught a couple. Guys next to me caught around 10 all together. Windy as a mother. White caps at high tide. Around 10-10:30 am I noticed fish were biting closer to shore when the tide was going back out so I shortened my casts and caught 2 more. 7 at high tide, 2 at low. Left before the rain came down. Bites are funny, they hit once than wait another 2 minutes to hit again. Just as you out your pole back down in the holder. Wednesday (warmer weather) they actually pulled the baitrunner. Their hitting lightly so I'm saving worms :) 6/0 circle hooks right in the corner everytime.

Fished Croton area with chunk herring. We got 4 stripers, 1@24", 1@26", 1@ 30", and one at 33". # took heads, and one on a chunk, the usual ratio. Water temp was 41, still 2 degrees below where we want it for the better fish to be active. Should be much improved by the weekend
