6-5-2013--Trout are still good on croaker. My couple didn't quite limit this morning but did have a lot of missed chances. It took awhile to get used to croaker fishing and by then the bite slowed. The man hooked onto what I first thought was a huge red but later decided must have been a very large ray. We cranked the drag down on 30# braid and he fought the creature for about 20+ minutes. At that point it ran toward the shore and we decided it must be a ray so we cranked the drag tighter. At that point the rod which had been bent double all along broke in two. He fought the creature on half a rod for a little bit and then the half rod broke followed by the line breaking because there was no rod to take the shock.
